Custom styles for styles panel of chrome dev tools

#Customize styles for chrome dev tools

In order to show a cleaner styles panel I've modified some styles in a very inception-esque exercise (inspecting the inspector).

In this image you can see the differences, on the left the default style, on the right my custom styles panel.

List of changes:

  • Checkboxes to enable/disable properties on left
  • Lighter grey for the name of css file in a properties block
  • Grey background for read-only properties or inherited properties from other files
  • Only show inherited properties from other files when moving mouse over the title bar
  • Highlighted with yellow background some "important" properties: float, display, position, margin, padding and width
  • Changed value color
  • Highlighted with italic properties with -webkit prefix
  • Hidden browser prefixes except -webkit
  • Hidden all prefixes for border-radius and box-shadow
  • Removed grey line between block of properties
