Lisa: active area diagonal of CRT? 10.4" or thereabouts?

Apologies for the sluggish reply. I'm not sure what "active area" means, but I measured the diagonal size of the raster on my Lisas, so if that's what you're after, here you go:

On my Lisa 2/10, it's 257mm.

On my Lisa 1, it's a more luxurious 271mm.

This sizing can be adjusted by means of trimmers on the video baords.
 
To clarify: there's no important difference between the video systems on both Lisas; I mention them separately just because there's some variation depending on the machine. There may be some official Apple sizing that they tuned things for at the factory, but I doubt either of my computers reflects that specification.
 
Thanks so much! Yep, the diagonal of the pixels is what I needed. That screen is a bit less than 271mm in diagonal. Just need to match aspect ratios. Drawing the rectangles on oversize cardboard to hold behind the bezel will be the next step, thanks so much!
