How can I inspect element in chrome when right click is disabled?

Solved debugging google-chrome google-chrome-devtools javascript-debugger

I want to debug a info box that shows when I mouse over a google map marker. But google map disables right click anywhere on the map canvas, so I can't inspect the element for debugging / viewing purposes.

I tried to search for the element by the href content in the elements tab, but it didn't show up on search.

Is there a way to inspect element despite the lack of right click?

I don't think browsers should let pages block right click. It doesn't achieve anything but frustrating users. We deserve better. – Johnathan 1/7, 2015 at 10:45

Sure, you can open the devtools with Ctrl+Shift+I, and then click the inspect element button (square with the arrow)

That's it! I didn't know about this function. Thanks. – Rattletrap 30/9, 2011 at 2:39

In case you can't open dev tools with Ctrl + Shift + I, you may open it by clicking on Developer Tools sub-menu from More Tools in Google Chrome menu. – Bigot 8/5, 2015 at 7:6

I prefer CMD+SHIFT+c. – Heliotaxis 4/6, 2014 at 22:42

I use CMD+ALT+J :) – Chausses 8/12, 2015 at 12:47

Use Ctrl+Shift+C (or Cmd+Shift+C on Mac) to open the DevTools in Inspect Element mode, or toggle Inspect Element mode if the DevTools are already open.

Press F12 to Inspect Element and Ctrl+U to View Page Source

ALTERNATE WAY:

Click Developer Tools to inspect element. You may also use keyboard shortcuts, such as CtrlL+Shift+I, F12 (or Fn+F12), etc.
