I measured the height of the View segmented control in the Finder toolbar. It 
is 22 points high not including the shadow at the bottom. This measurement was 
done using the Pixie application which is part of the Xcode Graphics Tools 
supplied by Apple.

If you are examining the points or pixels of a control you should use the Pixie 
application. It is like using a surgical knife with a microscope. It has 
preferences for magnification factor, development mode, grid, mouse hot-spot, 
mouse coordinates, and colors. 

Doing something similar with a screen shot would be like using a butter knife 
with poor eye sight. You can do it but it is not the best tool in the toolbox.
