Where is the Structure Elements feature in IE11?

Question

I cannot find the Contour Elements function in the tools of the Internet Explorer 11 developer (in older versions it was placed in the Outline menu ).

Was it removed from IE11 or is it just hidden somewhere, I didn’t find it?

Answer 1

It looks like it has been slightly modified. The DOM Explorer tab contains three icons below it. The two icons share the behavior that I think you are looking for.

The first is the Select Element icon, which looks like an edit box with an Ouija pointer. When you click on it, you will see the selection rectangles around the objects on the web page when you use the mouse to hover over them.

The second icon, a series of cells, is a switch for selecting DOM elements. When it is active, you can click the elements in the HTML tree and they will be highlighted on the screen.

The document outlines updated documentation , but is not discussed directly.

Hope this helps ...
