Hi,

It's been couple weeks I had this issue now and I can't tell if it comes from Chrome, or my device. I'm using developer tools (chrome://inspect) to develop an app. I'm front-end so I mainly use the Elements tab along with the Styles for CSS editing in real time. (It use to work couple weeks ago on the same app/phone).

My issue is the next one: I can't write any styling on a new line. I have to edit an existing css property, or copy/paste one then edit it, but if I go on a new line and try typing, nothing happens. As well as if I have a property without value, it will disappear before I could write any value. Just like if the keyboard was loosing focus on the new line.

It's quite annoying since I always have to copy/paste a dull property and then edit it. I basically spend twice more time editing my CSS. Note that the developer tools works perfectly on any website. I also tried different devices with the app on it and the problem remains.

Thanks anyone for helping :)

App environnement: Cordova
Chrome version: 61.0.3163.79

Can you try it on Chrome Canary and let us know if the issue persists
