It would help to have a tool tip or other means to measure the length of the block(s) the cursor is on or the pointer is hovering.

I tried adding a tooltip to the cursor displaying the info but decided it was too distracting. Perhaps a status bar - but I do not think this accords with elementary design principles.

what about making it some kind of toggleable mode? Where you can select horizontal/vertical block sizes to be displayed?

Yeah, maybe some kind of popup linked to a hotkey. I have a trial branch which makes the grid scrollable intended to make larger puzzles easier to manipulate
