Question

Screen dimensions

Hello!
I have a problem. I’ve made a design for a web portal on 1440x1024 dimensions.
Now I have problems with the developers because the dimensions that I’ve used in Figma (sizes, space between elements, etc.) do not correspond with my Figma design.
For example: If I put a space between elements of 8, and the developer also used 8, at the end, on his screen the space is way bigger than in my design.

What I’m doing wrong? I really need help on this.

You must ensure both Figma and the developers use the same units (pixels) and consider scaling factors affecting element dimensions for alignment.
