768867 - Disable Developer Toolbar in Print Preview

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(DevTools :: General, defect, P3)

Description

[Virgil Dicu [:virgil] [QA]]

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:16.0) Gecko/16.0 Firefox/16.0

1. Enable developer toolbar in about:config - devtools.toolbar.enabled;true
2. Select the Developer toolbar in Tools menu.
3. Load a page within Firefox.
4. Print preview.

Actual result: Developer toolbar is displayed at the bottom of the page. Web developer tools are accessible through the developer toolbar, but most of them not functional (Style editor, debugger)

Expected: Developer toolbar is not displayed when in print preview.

With Developer Tollbar disabled, no tools are accessible in Print Preview.

Would it not make sense to make our tools work in print preview? That way print stylesheets could be debugged... maybe we could just select the media type from our style tools?

it might make more sense to enable print media from the responsive view.

Developer toolbar doesn't exist anymore

Shouldn't this be closed?

Yes it should. Thank you Ariel for catching that. I'll close it now.
