Bug 146691 – Web Inspector: Details sidebar doesn't activate on first selected resource in Network tab

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: FIXED
• Component: Web Inspector

[Jon Davis]

The sidebar icon remains in a disabled state in the Network tab even after selecting a resource. The second selection of a resource activates the sidebar icon. Additionally, after reloading, clicking the sidebar icon before selecting a resource does nothing. Then when you select a resource, the sidebar opens with the resource.

If the sidebar icon is disabled, it shouldn't toggle anything to open. However, I think it should always be clickable and if no resource selection exists, the main document should auto-select and open the sidebar.

I wonder if there is an exception that is causing this. Can you inspect the inspector to check? http://trac.webkit.org/wiki/WebInspectorDebugging

Shows disabled sidebar icon, and reluctance of sidebar to open.

I could not get the second behavior to repro in this video. Clicking the sidebar icon with no resource selected, then selecting the resource does not open the sidebar as it did when I was first noticing the behavior.
