PixelSpan

Measure edge-to-edge spacing between webpage elements with a quick visual overlay.

PixelSpan is a lightweight visual measuring tool for checking spacing directly on live webpages. Whether you are polishing a UI, comparing a page against a design mockup, reviewing layout changes, or debugging a tricky spacing issue, PixelSpan makes it easy to measure the exact edge-to-edge distance between elements without opening a separate design tool. Turn on PixelSpan, hover over the page, and click two elements. The extension highlights both selected elements and draws a clear measurement line between their closest edges. The distance appears directly beside the line, giving you a quick pixel-perfect reading while keeping the page visible. PixelSpan is useful for: Frontend development UI and layout QA Design handoff checks Margin and spacing review Pixel-level polish on live pages Debugging responsive layouts The extension is intentionally simple. It focuses on one job: measuring the visible gap between two elements. There are no dashboards, accounts, analytics, or complex setup steps. You can enable it from the toolbar popup or toggle it with a keyboard shortcut. PixelSpan only runs when you enable it on the active tab. It does not collect, store, sell, or transmit browsing data. The requested permissions are used only to inject the measurement overlay into the page you choose to inspect. Useful for developers, designers, QA testers, and anyone who cares about clean spacing on the web.
