733751 - show only non-default values in Computed view (for shorthand properties)

Status: NEW

(DevTools :: Inspector, enhancement, P3)

Description

[Kevin Dangoor]

If you set a shorthand property like "font" (this example taken from http://html5boilerplate.com):

font: 300 16px/1.5 "Helvetica Neue", sans-serif;

then you get infrequently used properties like font-stretch appearing in the Computed view. The computed view could filter out the properties that are just the default values.

Isn't that already fixed? I.e. browser styles are hidden behind the 'Browser styles' checkbox.

This is not about browser / user agent styles.  If you try the example in comment 0, you'll see it's still true today.

Ah, I misinterpreted the description. So in the example it's just expected to see

font-family   "Open Sans",sans-serif
font-size     17px
line-height   23.8px

and no other longhand properties for

font: 17px/1.4 "Open Sans",sans-serif;
