Developer Tools Element Inspector shortcut closes Dev tools instead of reactivating Inspection mode
-
Thanks for the reply leutage.
Cmd-shift-c-c won't toggle-off the inspector and leave the dev panel open which is often what I need. Cmd-shift-c, and cmd-shift-i, both close the entire panel.
Will take a look at at the one key shortcuts but I'm guessing that it's the toggle process itself needs fixing.
Thanks, Steve -
I have a shortcut set to the Developer Tools Element Inspector- CMD+SHIFT+C to match Chrome. On Chrome, pressing it with Developer Tools already open just activates the Element Inspector if it's not already active. It does not close the Developer Tools nor should it.
Vivaldi on the other hand, closes Developer Tools when I press the shortcut while Developer Tools is open. Why? This is not what the shortcut is assigned to do. It's frustrating because I have to open the Developer Tools pane over and over just to inspect different elements.
This behavior, in my opinion, is a bug.

@gwen-dragon Is there an estimated date to fix this issue? Thanks.

This is a quite apparent bug, because it doesn't let to use the shortcut properly.
Besides, at least in Vivaldi 5.3 I see that this command is even labelled in a wrong way - it says "Toggle Developer Tools", but it should say instead "Inspect" or something like this.
Someone can say that this command is working is advertised (it does TOGGLE Dev tools
), but then we have lost an important "Inspect" command which is present in other major browsers. -
@certainlyakey "Inspect" is still there in the secondary (right) click context menu, at the bottom, under "Developer Tools"
The "Toggle Developer Tools" Quick Command is the equivalent of using Shift-Command-I to open/close devtools.

@xyzzy True. I guess we need to make the core problem a bit clearer.
The issue stated by the topic starter and me is different - it is not about unavailability of the Inspect command, it's about:- the Inspect command not being assigned to any shortcut and
- another command being assigned to a shortcut that all other major browsers use for the Inspect command.

@certainlyakey Sorry, I misunderstood. I just checked the bug tracker and did find a bug, VB-35278 (and MANY duplicates) related to not being able to use (or assign) the equivalent Chrome devtools shortcuts in Vivaldi and (unexpected) differences in behaviour. I don't know how, when or if they plan to resolve these issues but at least the bug remains open.

Where can I find the bug tracker and track progress for VB-35278 in particular? This issue still seems present in the latest version
