944852 - 3D view documentation incomplete or focus feature lost

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Developer Documentation Graveyard :: Developer Tools, defect)

Description

[itgabsns]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:25.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/25.0 (Beta/Release)
Build ID: 20131112160018

Steps to reproduce:

Reading the documentation I notice 3 features binded to:

F  Focus on selected node 	
R  Reset view	
X  Hide current node	   

Great functions but I noticed that F not work at all

Steps:
-Open the developer mode ctrl + shift + k
-Check the 3d view
-Press on some nodes and make hide it with pressing 'x' key
-Try to make that nodes visible again with F over the hidden node (not so easy to focus) or go directly into the node in the code view
-As an alternative press 'r' key that reset the view

Windows: 7 64bit
Firefox: 25.0.1
Tested in many pages
Firefox almost clean
Plugins: Shockwave Flash 11.9.900.152
Extensions:  Adblock Plus 2.4


Actual results:

F not have any action in the 3D view mode
R not reset the view, only the position and angle

The unique way to reset is close the 3D view and reload completely the webpage. 


Expected results:

F should unhidden or revert the action of X when the node is  selected in the 3D view or in the code view.

R should reset all the visibility states of the nodes in the 3D view so there is no need to close the 3D view or reload the webpage.

3D view does not work with multiprocess Firefox (e10s), which is the default in Developer Edition. To make it work would be a full rewrite, and when/if the devtools team decides to do this, they'll reconsider the features for the tool and we'll document the new tool. See bug 937166.

So I'm closing this bug.
