Overview

Instantly measure pixel-perfect spacing between any two elements on a webpage.
No DevTools. No hassle — just double-tap D and click.

Who is it for?
* Designers comparing mockups to live implementations
* Developers verifying layout precision and alignment
* QA engineers tracking down spacing inconsistencies
* Anyone who needs to answer: “How many pixels are between these two elements?” — without leaving the page.

How it works?
If you have an experience of working with figma, it might be more intuitive for you,
1. Double-tap "D" (activating measurement mode) and keep it pressed
2. Place your cursor over elements (hover) to highlight them with a dashed outline
3. Click on any two elements on the webpage, that you want to measure distance between (keep the key "D" pressed while both are not selected to keep measurement mode active)
Important! When you are not pressing "D", measurement mode will go down
4. You will instantly see
* Solid frames on selected elements
* Connecting guidelines
* Exact pixel values for vertical and horizontal distances between selected elements
5. Click on information icon to discover more details on the opened modal about the distance between selected elements
* Vertical and horizontal distances
* Top-to-top, bottom-to-bottom, etc.
* All relevant spacing variations
6. Move your cursor over the eye icon in the modal to temporarily make it transparent and see what’s behind it.

Features
* Precise vertical and horizontal pixel measurements
* Keyboard-first workflow (no toolbars or clutter)
* Customizable on-screen colors
* Clean and non-intrusive — click outside to exit instantly
* Dedicated details panel for advanced distance insights
