How do I turn off Web Developer Toggle Tools to just use Inspector by itself?
I was using Inspector by itself. Sometimes Inspector has problems inspecting so I shut down Firefox and re-open it. I did this. When I reopened I use Ctrl + Option + i to open Inspector and it automatically opens Toggle Tools (all Web Developer options). I can find no help on how to switch it back to JUST using Inspector. The same thing happens with Debugger and Style Editor (their shortcodes open ALL the tools).
I can not get this function to turn off.

Hello megart04, see if the next add-on is useful : DOM Inspector add-on
thank you
In current Firefox versions are all Web Developer tools combined in one toolbar and you can only have one of them open at the same time.
The inspector should close if you close the tab that has the Inspector open.
If you can reproduce this issue reliably (i.e. you have steps to reproduce that always work) then you can consider to file a bug report.
I tried DOM Inspector out, this add-on is just not for me. I really would like my right column Inspector back with rules that you can check and un-check. Toggle tools (which displays all dev tools) does not include that option.
I am going to try to revert to an old developer toolbar.
With these web developer tools, it is impossible to examine part of the interface. It only looks at content. What does one use these days with Firefox to examine part of its interface?
You should be able to use a menu bar at the top of the Developer Toolbox to select the various tools. You can only select one tool at the time and opening the Inspector should give you an HTML panel and a Style panel

You can detach this panel via the two Doc button at the right hand side of the developer toolbar.
The style panel moves to the the bottom if the window width is below a specific width.
