           Summary: right-clicking an object to inspect it no longer
                    expands object tree to see it
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Macintosh Intel
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.6
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Web Inspector
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: brkemper at mac.com


For the last 2 or 3 days of nightlies, it has been pretty much hit-or-miss as to whether or not an object will be shown in the inspector or not when you right click on it to inspect it. Using the maginying glass seems like it sometimes works more often, but I might be mistaken about that. I am often inspecting items that are in an iframe, or in an iframe that is itself in an iframe, but the bug also occurs on items in the outermost document. If in these situations where it doesn't work I click on the disclosure triangles to manually dig into the DOM tree, I sometimes find that it is not showing the tree all the way down (it might stop at the HTML tag of the document in the iframe, IIRC). Often a second right click to inspect the element will allow an inspection as usual, but not always. Having multiple inspectors open for different pages seems to exacerbate the problem.
