Fat fingers?
« on: December 26, 2012, 12:03:33 PM »
What could I be hitting while posting (or other things as well), to sometimes jump to a screen like this?
That rug really tied the room together, did it not?

that is the inspect element screen (right click on the element and it will be on the bottom of the menu that pops up) . . . did not see a shortcut in the tools menu for it. You'll have to dig a little deeper. CTRL+U and SHFT+CTRL+I will give you similar results, but not the same.

Yes, we've won our share of awards, and yes, I've tested stuff and read the scientific papers, but ultimately take everything I say with more than just a grain of salt! So if you are looking for trouble, just do as I say or even better, do something I said years ago!

Yes, that is "inspect element" and it is useless to me also, at least at this point in my computer education. If I recall correctly, you have a 7 machine. You might Google "inspect element hotkeys" or shortcuts and see what pops up. (quotes optional). F12 will occasionally pop it up on my workstation.
