Color Picker - No color preview in Comodo Dragon (Chromium browser)

DavidM — Fri, 11 May 2012 19:35:28 +0000

I have been having this issue for several months, thought I'd report it to you.

When I am using the color picker tool, the little box at the bottom that is supposed to show me a sample of the color I picked is always white. The HTML hex color code beside it updates, but the box stays white.

Also if the page is at a zoom that is not 100%, the color picker does not pick the color under the cursor. Instead it picks the color of pixel that is near by. It seems the further the zoom, the worse the accuracy.

In Firefox 11 I can't even find the Color Picker tool... Maybe I'm blind?

Couple of issues which are rendering the extension almost useless for me on Chrome..

CreativeCrook — Fri, 11 May 2012 14:03:20 +0000

I've been using Web Developer for years on Firefox so I'm a big fan! You've saved me many hours of work :)

On Chrome, though, there are some critical issues.

1. with 'element information' activated, the info bar at the bottom of the window is overlapped with chrome links information when you hover over a link. This means getting full child info a link can be very frustrating. I have to resort to 'inspect element' using Chrome's developer tools.

2. as with above, element information cuts off the bottom half of text in that box. This cuts off the bottom of pq's etc and underscores which is very important: filter search could be filter_search or 2 classes - filter, search.

And a feature request:

1. any way to have certain tools docked to the Chrome titlebar? So I don't have to keep clicking the extension, then the tool category, then the tool? Or perhaps keyboard shortcuts? Of which there is no info about with the extension.

Quirks mode?

Nutster — Thu, 10 May 2012 15:18:43 +0000

I have not used this add-on for about a year, but installed it last weekend, so I am sure some things have changed since I was last using it.

On the Web Developer toolbar, there are three indicators on the right, which indicate the quality of the HTML, CSS, and JS. On some sites I go to, I am seeing the HTML indicator say "Quirks Mode". What is this about? What kind of issues is that referring to?

Hi There!

We have the toolbar installed on two machines using firefox, mine works, however my colleagues displays, i.e. you can click on everything, but none of the functions actually work.

When I say don't work, say for example I click on CSS and then View Style Information, it ticks, but the functionality doesn't work.

Any ideas?

Cheers,

Marc.

Line Guides not working?

sammii — Sat, 31 Mar 2012 15:21:57 +0000

The Line Guides have not been working for months for me. If I open Miscellaneous - Line Guides, and click "Add Horizontal/Vertical Line Guide" nothing happens! They were really useful and I wish they'd work again. :(

I'm on Firefox 10.0; can't remember the version I was on when they last worked. I see that a Known Issue is that the line guides don't work in FRAMES, but ... they aren't working period right now, at least not for me.

In Firefox Add-on Reviews for Web Developer, I saw a couple people having the same problem:

Red out line around Browser edge

Brains — Tue, 01 May 2012 01:06:03 +0000

Hello Chrispederick,

I have a red line around my Firefox v12 browser which I can't find were I have activated it from. I have been using Web Developer all morning with image out lines etc. I'm stumped. I removed Web Developer and installed again, red border is still there. I can see Notepad++ in the 'View Source' drop-downs after reinstalling. I hadn't completely removed it than.

Ok, a picture for the purpose......

(Did search Forum)

regards
