pixeltool
Pixeltool is a utility from Qt/Trolltech that allows developers to inspect and analyse pixel data from running applications. It is typically used by Qt developers to debug rendering issues, verify colour accuracy, measure pixel dimensions, and inspect the graphical output of GUI applications during development.

1 suggestionWe could not find recent public information about pixeltool — whether it is still actively maintained, whether a native Apple Silicon build exists, or what its current status is. The bundle ID suggests it is part of the Qt framework tools from Trolltech (now The Qt Company). If you depend on this tool, we recommend contacting The Qt Company directly or checking the official Qt documentation and release notes to confirm whether a native Apple Silicon build has been released. Given that Apple will remove Rosetta 2 support in macOS 28 (September 2028), it is important to verify the tool's compatibility status well before that deadline. As an alternative, modern versions of Qt Designer and Qt Creator (the official Qt IDE) include built-in inspection and debugging tools that may provide similar functionality with confirmed native Apple Silicon support.
