Bug 167075 – Web Inspector: split console should be allowed for Network and Timeline tabs when Inspector is not docked

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

[Blaze Burg]

The only problematic case is when docked to bottom, we have basically no room at all. I am pretty sure that this is a getter or method call, so this can be done dynamically. (In that case I don't think we should ever show split console while docked to bottom).

Maybe if this is the default then the subclass methods that do the same thing can just be removed.

This still poses a problem. Since Network has real sidebar, if the split console is shown, the sidebar will show things that don't line up with the DataGrid in the content view. A comment to that effect should be added to explain this. Give it a try with a lot of network requests and you will see what I mean.

Timeline use to be the same way, but we don't have a real sidebar anymore so it should be fine.

Yup.  100% correct.  No idea why I didn't do that...

Oh snap that's a really good point.  I'll revert this.
