hi all, i can't for the life of me get the keyboard shortcut for
inspect element to work... i've disabled web developer toolbar, made
sure that nothing else is interfering (in about:config) and it still
doesn't work! am i missing some option setting or is this a bug?
thanks!

It would be helpful if you can be specific on what keyboard combo you
are using. Control-Shift-C works for me.

You can check Firebug > Firebug Icon Menu > Shortcuts

It would also help if we knew which OS you are using.

hi mike, thanks for response.

i have already set the shortcut (in tools>firebug>customize shortcuts)
to "ctrl shift c" and i both disabled web developer toolbar and
checked in about:config that the only keyboard shortcut that is using
ctrl shift c is firebug...

so, there is some sort of weird bug that is interfering with it.

thanks again and looking forward to hearing the message!

Can you try with 1.7b1:
http://getfirebug.com/releases/firebug/1.7X/firebug-1.7X.0b1.xpi

If it still doesn't work can you try with a different shortcut?

Failing that can you paste the results of about:support here?

Hi mike, thanks for your response,
installed it, still no dice. curiously, ctrl + alt + c does work! but
why the *&^&F# wouldn't ctrl+shift+c, which i've been using for 3
years, not work? again, i've checked for all and any interference...

Can you paste the results of about:support into the address bar, click
the copy button and paste the results here?

no problem, but about:support gives me tons of different tables and
comments, is there somethig in particular to select and paste here?
also, do you want about:support results while ctrl+shift+c is the
shortcut (so, while its NOT working) or when ctrl+alt+c is chosen (so,
while it IS working)?

There should be a button at the top of the page labeled "Copy all to
clipboard while it is not working.

If I set an identical profile up (same extensions, versions and
settings) then everything works fine for me so you must have a corrupt
profile. You will need to reinstall to a clean profile:
