1160559 - "PIck an element from the page" icon missing from toolbar

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(DevTools Graveyard :: WebIDE, defect)

Description

[James Burke [:jrburke]]

Found with Firefox Nightly desktop on Mac, 40.0a1 (2015-05-01). I have noticed it for the past couple of days:

STR:

* Open WebIDE
* Connect to Firefox OS (Flame) (with flame attached via USB)
* Select a certified app to debug. I have been using the email app.

The toolbar that shows that gives access to Inspector, Console, Debugger, Style Editor, etc... usually has the "Pick an element from the page" icon on the very left of that toolbar.

However it is missing now.

If I go to the Preferences for WebIDE, under the "Available Toolbox Buttons", the checkbox for "Pick an element from the page" is checked, so I would expect to see the icon.

If I toggle the checkbox off then on, then the icon reappears. However, this is a temporary fix. On each reconnect to the flame, that workaround needs to be repeated.

Yes, there are several variations of things going wrong here...

There is bug 1160345 (for old servers) and bug 1160361 (for new b2g servers).

Anyway, hopefully fixed soon.

This should now be working as before.  James, is it working for you now?

Yes, I noticed this yesterday, and then just reverified with today's nightly. Loving the capabilities of the WebIDE, thanks for the hard work to keep it all going, particularly across the different versions of servers and clients!
