LESS EXPLAINING. CLEARER FEEDBACK.

DESKTOP ONLY · GOOGLE CHROME EXTENSION

The point is here.
Make it visible.

Sgriz it yourself!

A heading to move? A button to enlarge? Put a grid over the site, leave a note and circle the issue. Make the next change clear at a glance.

Add SGRIZ.IT to Chrome ↗

Currently for desktop and laptop computers only, using the Google Chrome extension. Not available on phones or tablets. No account needed.

Local notes, domain log and email: how we use data
SGRIZ.IT: grids, notes, drawings and screenshots for visual website feedback. Open the Chrome Web Store.

DESIGNING FOR MOBILE? STAY AT YOUR DESK.

The layout gets smaller.
Your control stays big.

Review a mobile layout by narrowing the Chrome window: responsive sites will adapt. For a precise width, use the device toolbar in developer tools, still on your computer.

This preview helps check the layout; it does not replace testing on a real phone. SGRIZ remains a desktop tool with a Chrome extension.

For people building websites, not dozing on the sofa. 😉

Install from the Chrome Web Store. Chrome manages extension updates. Official Chrome guide

02 / ACTIVATE THE EXTENSION

Open the site. Make your point.

Pin SGRIZ.IT to the toolbar from Chrome’s puzzle menu. Then open the page you want to review.

  1. Click SGRIZ.IT to open Extension Panel.
  2. Choose the grid size, colour, opacity and your preferred language.
  3. Choose Open / update Sgriz Panel: the green panel appears on the page.

Circle the logo, write “Make this bigger” and take a screenshot. Your feedback is already clear.

Open website ↗

Reactivate after a full page load. Changing settings updates the panel that is already open.

Which site shall we sgriz?

Open it here, then activate SGRIZ.IT in its tab.

The site opens in a new tab. Activate the extension there.

YOUR SGRIZ PANEL

Look. Mark. Explain.
Right on the page.

A1

Always a precise location

Column letters, row numbers and the selected coordinate. Select a cell or enter C7 in Go to jump to it.

50 × 50

Your grid, your choice

Sizes 1–20: from 50 × 50 to 1000 × 1000 pixels. Cells stay square and fixed when resizing. Adjust colour and opacity; show or hide the grid.

✎

Notes that explain the work

Click a cell, write in the yellow note and expand it. Set priority and status: to do, in progress, resolved. List, show/hide, delete and undo deletion.

◯ □

A sketch makes it clear

Freehand, circles/ovals and rectangles. Drawing colour and stroke width, undo and clear/recover sketches. Drawings follow page scrolling.

↔

Measure before you ask

Activate Ruler and drag between two points: distance, ΔX and ΔY in CSS pixels. Free, horizontal or vertical measurements; Shift locks to the nearest axis. Measurements follow scrolling and are saved in revisions, JSON and screenshots.

↕

A panel that finds its place

Drag the title; dock at the bottom for a horizontal toolbar. Dock, undock, collapse, expand or close: position is remembered. Browse lets clicks reach the site.

PNG

Show exactly what you mean

Choose Capture visible area or Capture entire page: one PNG with visible notes, grid, drawings and measurements. Full-page capture scrolls and stitches the page, then restores your position. Esc cancels. Load images and content first; infinite pages, dynamic elements and internally scrolling areas may need separate captures. Add a filename and confirm saving.

↺

Pick up where you left off

Local autosave per page, Save review, New review and history restore. Cell size is protected when notes exist; start a new review to change it.

JSON

Take your annotations with you

Export and import a review on the same page. JSON includes notes, grid and drawings; PNGs stay separate. Share files yourself. Accounts and online collaboration are future features.

NEW SINCE VERSION 0.2.10

The ruler: fewer guesses, more pixels.

How much space is there between two elements? Activate Ruler in the Sgriz Panel and measure it directly on the page, including diagonals.

  1. Press Ruler and drag from the start point to the end point: read the distance, horizontal ΔX and vertical ΔY.
  2. Choose free, horizontal or vertical direction. In free mode, hold Shift to lock to the nearest axis; Esc cancels the measurement in progress.
  3. Measurements follow scrolling. Undo, hide and save them in reviews and JSON; visible measurements appear in screenshots.

Example: 300 px horizontally + 400 px vertically = a 500 px diagonal.

Measurements use CSS layout pixels, independently of screen density. Update the extension to version 0.2.10 or later to use the ruler.

CHROME WEB STORE

Found it useful? Share your experience.

Try SGRIZ.IT on your next project. Then open its Chrome Web Store listing, go to the reviews and tell us what helps you and what could be better. Your feedback helps SGRIZ grow.

Open the Store and leave a review ↗

Your annotations stay yours.

No account required. Notes, drawings and reviews stay in the extension’s local storage. Screenshots are saved to your computer when requested, with no automatic upload.

Each new Sgriz Panel activation sends only the hostname to SGRIZ.IT. The server adds date and time and attempts a TXT record and an email to the operator, even if TXT saving fails. No full URLs, parameters, titles, comments, drawings or images are sent. Other tabs and passive browsing are not monitored.

Initial email limits: 30 attempts per hour, at least 2 seconds apart. Results appear in Extension Panel: mail-service acceptance does not confirm inbox delivery. The connection check sends no email and records no domain. The TXT is private to the operator; normal hosting access logs are separate.

The website stays itself.

Internal browser pages, extension stores and some protected pages are not supported. Reactivate SGRIZ after full navigation. Layout changes may move content relative to coordinates. Keep JSON and PNG backups before clearing browser data.
