Description Jaka Jančar 2009-11-20 12:59:29 PST 
It would be great if it was possible to right click a resource in the Web Inspector and Save it to a file.
Comment 1 Patrick Mueller 2009-11-20 15:00:28 PST 
There are a couple of ways to do this today:

- select an image from resource panel, so it shows in the main part of the UI.  You can drag that image to the Finder, for instance.

- double-clicking on the "name" of the resource in the left-hand panel will open the resource in a new browser window/tab

Supporting the context menu (right mouse button) is on the list of things to do.

Patrick points out the normal use cases to download a resource.

Right clicking would be a duplicate of:

I don't know the extent of drag and drop's capabilities. Could we make it so that it downloads the raw file if you DnD to the desktop, but for the most part treat it like a URL (what it is right now).
Comment 3 Jaka Jančar 2009-11-20 22:42:31 PST 
I meant to save the actual resource that was downloaded, not just to open the URL again, so it works with POST and even for pages that change between two accesses.

I believe this is partially complete now for Scripts, Stylesheets, and HTML.  Though strangely not Images, Fonts and Other.
