Digital Precision: Checking Your Mouse DPI for Better Design Control

Hey everyone,
I’ve been spending a lot of time working on digital ship plans lately, and realized how much accurate mouse movement matters when doing fine detail work — especially when tracing lines or adjusting components.


I came across a neat online tool that helps check your mouse’s DPI (Dots Per Inch) to make sure it’s giving you consistent tracking. It’s simple, browser-based, and doesn’t need installation:

It helped me understand how small DPI differences can affect precision work — thought it might be useful for others who do CAD or digital modeling as part of their shipbuilding projects.


Has anyone else here tested their mouse DPI for design accuracy?
