@woojsoow A known, unfixed bug with Vivaldi where the UI breaks after reload & profiling 😕 But it should work in undocked Devtools.

@abedabe said in Focus on Developer Tools while debugging: I am not planning to give up on Vivaldi You are a very patient person 🙂 I am unhappy about unfixed Devtools bugs in Vivaldi, because they cause more work or force me to use Chromium to debug websites and web apps.

As far as I know, you can't inspect the Vivaldi UI using the DevTools in a docked window/Tab. That also wouldn't be feasible, as you might want to inspect differenet parts of the UI, like the Speed Dial in one Tab and the Bookmarks in another one. If the DevTools were docked to one Tab, you would need to open several instances of them.

Thanks @Gwen-Dragon. Didn't use correct search keywords before opening new topic. 😞

@VirtuallyCreative That is a old bug in Vivaldi. If you dock the dev tools windows, you can change the device.

@Pathduck Wow, that approach would never come to my mind and it indeed works! Thanks again for your help ♥

@Gwen-Dragon as I've mentioned, this mod causes the same bug as the floating panels and tries to do the same. After changing the code from this: #main .inner { position: relative; } #panels-container { position: absolute; z-index: 1; top: 0; bottom: 0; background-color: var(--colorBg); } #panels-container.right { right: 0; } To this: #main .inner { position: relative; } #panels-container { position: absolute; z-index: 1; height: 100%; background-color: var(--colorBg); } #panels-container.right { right: 0; } #webview-container { margin-left: 34px; } Everything works as expected. I don't know if the floating panels provided by Vivaldi work the same way, but maybe this information can also be helpful.

@Chas4 Thanks for the report. 👍 I will add a report internally for Vivaldi. VB-60645 "UA Strings are getting outdated"

@DanielVip3 said in Developer Tools Window is Too Small When Opening: do you know if one can alter the dev tools' window size with a custom extension (or a Vivaldi script mod placed in browser's HTML)? Or maybe catch the (undocked) dev tools opening event in any way? Sorry, but i do not know how to fix it.

@JoeC00L Yes, the Bug was fixed in 2.9 RC1. Now you can use some parts of Developer Tools without any trouble.

Ok, thanks

@Gwen-Dragon I don't know… I tried to make it happen again, but couldn't. It looks like it's one of these bugs that always happen, but are never reproducible 😖

@potmeklecbohdan I confirmed.

@nymsapet I checked my 2.6.1566.44 Stable on Win 10 x64 1903, no crash for me. Do you get a crashdump in %LocalAppData%\Vivaldi\User Data\Crashpad\reports\ ? How can i test this crash? Please give me some steps to reproduce.

Project manager for a web development company. This is honestly something new that I realize I need but having it will save so much time and effort. Deleting my history makes it so that I have to log back into all sites I have been working on in that past hour. Usually I have a lot of back and forth so this would simply aid with that. Logging back in isn't hard, just tedious. That being said, I just tried it on Chrome to test a popup we have upon website opening for a client and needed to do a full history delete to get it to show up again, not just using the empty cache and hard reload. So if there are multiple levels of options of clearing cache/history that can be accessed with a right click as algy suggested, it would certainly help me out. For now, chrome when I need to use that function.
