All,

I know there is no "Inspector" for the WebEngine like there was for webkit, but, is there __anything__??

Lack of sleep and a lot of caffiene so if you just want to post a link to it that would be fine. Not hitting on all cylinders right now.

Thanks,

Export environment variable QTWEBENGINE_REMOTE_DEBUGGING=<port> (or use --remote-debugging-port param) and then connect to that port with a chromium based browser (e.g. google chrome). This works since Qt 5.5 (unreleased yet, you might have to build QtWebEngine from git).

We are at 5.4. Kind of locked there right now.

What a PITA!

Thanks for the response though.

You can build just QtWebEngine from git (against Qt 5.4), use it for debugging (with the rest of Qt at 5.4 version) and then deploy QtWebEngine from Qt 5.4 for the final solution.
