Can't use DevTools > Application #4

Closed happybeing closed 7 years ago

happybeing commented 7 years ago

Operation System: Linux Beaker Version: 0.3.0

Start beaker Menu > BeakerDev > Toggle Shell-Window DevTools Click Tab: Application

The beaker window loses everything except the menu bar and I don't see a way to get the location bar back. New Tab etc do nothing.

I'm not sure what the difference is, but I can access the Application storage without the above problem if I use View > Toggle DevTools rather than BeakerDev > Toggle Shell-Window DevTools. So no hold-ups for me as it stands.

joshuef commented 7 years ago

There's a 'dev tools' for the whole application and then individual 'dev tools' for each tab. The latter (View > Toggle DevTools) is what you should be using for developing a webapp.

This doesn't necessarily solve this one, but just to note for clarity.

joshuef commented 7 years ago

As I read this, it was an issue with using the 'beaker' dev tools as opposed to any individual window. Please correct me if I'm wrong, @theWebalyst .

Otherwise we can close this.

happybeing commented 7 years ago

Yes, I hadn't seen the View > DevTools when I raised this. I have no problem closing it, although nuking the UI is still a bug, if only I've for devs :)

joshuef commented 7 years ago

Is this happening with the latest builds @theWebalyst ?

I can't replicate on osx right now...

happybeing commented 7 years ago

Yes. Doesn't happen when run locally, only with builds - last tested with 0.4.3-1 (on Debian).

joshuef commented 7 years ago

Ah right, you mean that the menu option is gone is a bug for you? Fair enough. I could reimplement this and bury it as a sub menu perhaps? Just to avoid unwitting users clicking it...

Sound reasonable?

happybeing commented 7 years ago

No!

The github issue is the thing - I'm talking about the debugger not working at all. I can start it with Ctrl-Alt-I but it crashes on that site.

happybeing commented 7 years ago

Ooops. my comments today were about #15 - my mistake and apologies

joshuef commented 7 years ago

@theWebalyst no worries. I'll keep the dev menu in dev only mode for now then until there's a specific need for that in compiled code.
