Issue descriptionUserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_11_6) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/55.0.2883.95 Safari/537.36 Steps to reproduce the problem: In order to facilitate debugging of missed/intercepted mouse events, it'd be desirable to have some kind of z-index inspector to get a reliable overview of element layering. What is the expected behavior? To be able to browse through layers and see invisible yet rendered elements obscuring other elements. What went wrong? It's very difficult to figure out the z-index layering on a complicated page. Did this work before? N/A Chrome version: 55.0.2883.95 Channel: stable OS Version: OS X 10.11.6 Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 24.0 r0 I do have some ideas for the UI, but I wouldn't like to be verbose right now and make the request sound heavy.

That's an interesting idea. It looks to me that this functionality could be implemented in a separate panel, could be in a way similar to the "Layers panel" we currently have. However, I'm unconvinced this would be useful to majority of the devtools users. I'd recommend experimenting with this in a form of a devtools extension. If it proves useful, we can revisit this issue and embed it in the devtools core. Closing this for now. |
