Bug 224774 – REGRESSION (r268691 && r270134): Web Inspector: Clicking on go-to arrow in Computed panel no longer works

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

[Nikita Vasilyev]

It supposed to navigate to the corresponding style in the Styles. Now it doesn't do anything.

[Error] Assertion Failed: Styles panel is missing.

This issue occurs when the Style panel is shown independently. When the Style panel is collapsed into the Details sidebar due to lack of space, this still works.

Most likely the logic here doesn't know how to find the Style panel when it is part of a different Sidebar.

[Video] Doesn't select CSS property

Note that when "Show independent styles sidebar" is unchecked, clicking on the go-to arrow open the Styles sidebar but doesn't focus on the CSS property. I haven't checked if this regressed in r268691 or not (if it did, it could be a separate bug/patch).

Just checked, the highlighting regressed somewhere else.

The second half of this behavior was regressed in r270134 due to a missed occurrence of `this._visible` (which should not have been accessed here at all as it was a private member of the superclass) in `WI.SpreadsheetRulesStyleDetailsPanel`.

This kinda sorta feels like a layering violation :/

Is the issue here that the `WI.RulesStyleDetailsSidebarPanel` isn't kept inside the `sidebarPanels` of a `WI.MultiSidebar`?  I feel like the `WI.MultiSidebar.prototype.get sidebarPanels` should return the list of _all_ sidebar panels across _all_ of its child/managed `WI.SingleSidebar`.

The issue is the `parentSidebar` is a SingleSidebar, which is a child of the MultiSidebar.

Can we just use `WI.detailsSidebar` then?  Reaching into the `WI.View` hierarchy of a different class seems like a place where issues (likely undiscovered) could arise.  It's also a bit presumptuous IMO to expect the `WI.RulesStyleDetailsSidebarPanel` to be in the same `WI.Sidebar` as this panel (as evidenced by this bug).

That would certainly work. Sounds good to me.

As a note for future readers, the reason why I don't see this as a layering violation is because this is the `WI.ComputedStyle*DETAILS*SidebarPanel`, so it's reasonable for a panel in the details sidebar to do things to the `WI.detailsSidebar`.

Ideally we'd have a way to get to the related `WI.TabBrowser.prototype.get detailsSidebar` instead of assuming the global singleton (or doing as @Patrick Angle suggested offline and having a `get topLevelParentSidebar`), but in the interest of getting this fixed I think it's fine for now.
