Why did the toolbar icons disappear from Google Chrome Developer Tools?
developer-tools, google-chrome
Solution
This happened to me too the other day. It took me a while, but I finally found the spot where you can re-enable them: just go to the Developer Tools settings. Incidentally, there is a bunch of other cool stuff there, too.
To bring up the settings (I'm using version 25), click the gear icon on the bottom-right of Developer Tools window. On the left, click `General`. Under `Appearance`, you'll find a checkbox labeled `Show toolbar icons`.
Incidentally, be sure to check out the `Shortcuts` area if you like to navigate with the keyboard.
Problem
I use Google Chrome Developer Tools all the time. Suddenly, the toolbar icons went away. They used to be above each of `Elements`, `Resources`, etc... and now they are gone. I guess this is okay because I didn't need them in the first place. But, is there a way to turn them back on?
