Note local files: In the extension details you have to explicitly tell chrome that you want to “Allow access to file URLs”.
see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D8pf38ifgUM for the steps
This extension adds a mouse position tooltip, with its x, and y coordinates.
It also allows you to measure area dimensions by dragging the cursor, like a pixel ruler.
As an option, you can set the triggering action for measuring areas to be the keyboard shift key (hold down *shift*, move mouse and hold up *shift*). This avoids the browser selecting things when you try to measure. It also prevents other default mouse behaviours, like scrolling when you are dragging your cursor.
Noted issues:
It should work after install, but the web is complicated. try refreshing the page if things do not work right away.
Iframes, usually ads, will look like another page and the parent page will lose track of coordinates.
Please send me feedback, I would appreciate it.

Good tool. I like it.
Wish it was open source but that’s personal taste.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS 😀
Exactly what i needed:)
Amazing! Works great! (I’m using Chrome 86.0.4240.193_64bit)
Thank you soooooooooooo much! This extension is a cool solution to a big problem (locate the page coordinates).
don’t work
working! And it even remembers urls for me!
It Works Perfectly! though, I would give it a 5 star review, if only there was an option that allowed you to look at the coordinates in a corner of the screen. it is very annoying to look all around when gaming, and i installed this so people don’t keep assuming I auto click. see, im guessing that if i DID have autoclickers or some cheat like that, the coordinates would go bouncing all over the place. however, if the mouse was all over the place, and the coordinates were with the mouse, then it would probably be hard to see, and like i said, very annoying to look at your own mouse and see a big white rectangle. please add this feature, untill then, for me this is 4 stars.
Works perfectly! Just gotta restart chrome first
You would have to go into the settings to set it to long view every time you turn chrome off. Also it doesnt update when you scroll you have to wiggle your mouse. other than that its perfect.
Doesn’t work all the time, but most of the time it does.
It actually worked. Thank you!!
works as mentioned!
Thanks for creating this awesome tool. First time it can’t work locally. Then I go to extension details and “Allow access to file URLs”. Now it’s working 🙂
