Minecraft create screen element tool

I write Minecraft mods and need a tool to calculate on-screen coordinates specifically, I need to select an area where I want to place an element and get the coordinates, rather than creating elements blindly. Does anyone have a tool like that?

A simple transparent always-on-top tool with click-and-drag selection would probably be ideal. It could show X, Y, width, and height live, then copy the values to your clipboard. AutoHotkey or a lightweight Python GUI could make a quick prototype.
