Like in Sketch it would be great if you could get the pixels from a selected object to a hovered object.

Hi Yes, I know that, but sketch goes one step further and gives you the distance of the selected object verses the hovered object also, which is the dotted line.

Currently Figma will only give the distance of objects next to it. Not the distance of a void.
This is where sketch is better.

Sketch measurements and Figma can’t do this.

Figma tries to measure but sketch is still better
