STR:
- Make sure profile does not already have a
chrome_debugger_profile
folder. - Set
gfx.webrender.all = true
and restart. - Open Browser Toolbox for the first time.
- Set
gfx.webrender.software = true
and restart. - Open Browser Toolbox.
Expected:
Browser Toolbox uses Software WebRender like the browser.
Actual:
Browser Toolbox still using WebRender, I know this because it has visual artifacts that only occur for me with Webrender (Bug 1679681).
Deleting chrome_debugger_profile
folder fixes it.

It seems like a current design of Browser Toolbox. It keeps same pref after chrome_debugger_profile folder is created. Browser Toolbox has a capability to update prefs during launching it. But it seems to be used only for testing.

The product::component has been changed since the backlog priority was decided, so we're resetting it.
