In a recent update to Chrome, it seems there are more keyboard shortcuts for the inspector, which is great, but they happen to be the same ones I often use in the web browser.  Like command+3 to switch to browser tab 3.

Anyone know a shortcut to switch focus back to the web page, from the inspector?

Apparently Ctrl+Shift+C brings focus to inspector, and pressing Ctrl+Shift+C cancels inspect element mode, so pressing Ctrl+Shift+C twice is a (lame) way to achieve what you need.

Can you, please, add this (and other unknown or hidden shortcuts) to the Shortcuts panel of the Settings overlay?
I looked for that for a long time and I only found out about it because someone posted it recently.

Thank you.

It looks like 'esc' key works for pulling it up!

One alternative would be to undock the devtools from the window, and then just alt + tab to switch between the two windows.

It would be a nice to have shortcut though, so you could keep it docked and still switch with a shortcut key.
