Is it possible to view multiple Chrome devtools panels at once?
As of Chrome Canary 33.0.1732.0, there's a "Show editor in Drawer" experiment. The editor shows up whenever you hit any anchor to the source code in DevTools.
I find this limitation frustrating too, all those other monitors are wasted! Here is poor man's solution:
- launch your chrome with
--remote-debugging-port=9999
command line parameter - right click on your page to debug and select 'Inspect Element' - this is your debug window #1
- open a separate chrome window and navigate to
chrome://inspect
- click 'Configure...' and add
localhost:9999
- within a couple of seconds under 'Remote Targets' you should see tabs you can inspect from your other chrome instance
- click on the tab, and now this is your debug window #2
