1902661 - Debugger left splitter is hard to use

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(DevTools :: Debugger, enhancement, P3)

Description

[Julian Descottes [:jdescottes]]

Splitters in DevTools can be hard to use because they are only active on a few pixels around the splitter. In the Debugger, the splitter between the source tree and the source panel seems only active for a single pixel and is very difficult to use.

This only seems to happen when the welcomebox is displayed, ie when there are no sources in the editor. For some reason this UI has a z-index: 10; which beats the z-index: 1 set for the splitter. We could increase the z-index for the splitter, but honestly I don't see any reason for setting a random z-index on the welcome box.
