InjuredPixels Description
Buying a new monitor and discovering that it can not provide you with a great viewing experience due to locked or dead pixels is always frustrating, yet there are ways to avoid such a situation right from the start, and one of them involves a small utility called InjuredPixels.
Straightforward UI and functionality
The sole purpose for which this app has been built is to allow you to spot pixels that do not work properly, along with any scratches or other similar defects that a monitor has. The tool can be used to test either a new monitor before making a purchase or an already bought one to determine whether it is fully functional or it needs replacing.
The manner in which InjuredPixels works is pretty straightforward: it fills the screen with a primary or custom color, allowing you to look for any pixels that might not match that color.
You can choose to fill the display with one of the five primary colors (namely Black, Blue, Green, Red, and White), or you can choose to go for a custom one, with a complete palette of nuances put at your disposal right from within the app.
Simple, minimal control options
Switching colors is as easy as it could be. You can either click on the screen to move to the next color, or you can take advantage of the left and right arrows on your keyboard to switch between them back and forth.
You can also choose to jump to a random custom color, to have the mouse pointer showing on the screen, and to keep the app always on top. However, given that it has been designed only for monitor screen testing, the software won’t provide you with any other functionality.
In conclusion
InjuredPixels might not be able to perform complex graphical renderings, but it can still prove a useful tool when it comes to checking monitors for dead or locked pixels. It comes with a simple design and straightforward functionality in a lightweight package, which is also ready-to-use in any situation.
