| Summary | 0019026: Inspect Element dialog box doesn't remember its settings and it is freezing the computer | ||||
| Description | 1. It is really frustrating to me when I open this dialog box and every time it has the same size and screen position without respecting my last settings, and I need to resize and reposition it to not overlap the program again and again. 2. It remembers the setting for Dark theme and other settings like Code folding only until restart of the program. 3. It is freezing the computer for 10 seconds on its closing (I cannot even switch to any other program), which happens 4 times after restart, i.e. after restart of the program you open it and close it 4 times and each and every time it will freeze for 10 seconds, but any further open/close will be immediately. I think this is reproducible. The same DevTools "dialog box" in VSCode doesn't have the 2-nd and 3-rd issues at all. It doesn't have the 1-st issue either, since it is not as dialog box in it, but more like an attached side panel to the main window. | ||||

For this functionality we're using built-in dialog handled by chromium itself so i'm not sure we can store/restore it's position and size ... will check. |

|
VSCode is also based on Chromium, and it can reposition/resize it according to its own window. |

The 3-rd issue was on my previous computer with Win 7, but it is not manifesting on Win 11. I have "resolved" the 2-nd problem since I am using now the Windows Contrast theme almost permanently. However, the 1-st issue is still driving me crazy. I have now even greater problem when creating the skin because I need more often to open/close the Inspect Element dialog box. I have tried several programs that allow automatic resizing/repositioning of specified windows/programs, including AutoSizer, WindowResizer and WinSize2, but they cannot work with the mentioned dialog box because it doesn't have title. Could you please add the title to that dialog box when it is opened? If you can, it would be nice if it has appended the title of its parent window to it, e.g. "Inspect element - Main window" or "Inspect element - Options". This is because every window in MM can open its own Inspect element dialog box, and every one of them deserve to have its own position on the screen, which could prevent their overlapping. |
