How do I use inspect mode in InVision?

Last updated on September 24, 2022 @ 9:08 pm

Inspect mode is a powerful tool that you can use to inspect the code that is running in your InVision app. Inspect mode lets you see the code that is running on the client side and the code that is running on the server side.

You can use inspect mode to see the structure of your code, to see how your code is being executed, and to find errors.

Inspect mode is particularly useful for debugging code. You can use it to track down where a problem is occurring, and to find out why a particular piece of code is doing what it is doing.

To use inspect mode, first open your InVision app. Then click on the gears icon in the top-left corner of the app window.

Click on the Inspect Mode button (in blue) to open the Inspect Mode dialog box.

To use inspect mode, you first need to select the code that you want to inspect. You can do this by clicking on the Select button (in blue) in the Inspect Mode dialog box.

The code that you select will be displayed in the main window of your InVision app, and the code that is running on the server side will be displayed in the Server Side Panel.

You can use the buttons in the Inspector Mode dialog box to control how the code is displayed.

The buttons in the Inspector Mode dialog box are:

The code that is running on the client side is displayed in the Client Side Panel.

The code that is running on the server side is displayed in the Server Side Panel.

The structure of the code is displayed in the Structure Panel.

PRO TIP: Invision’s inspect mode allows you to view and edit the styles of elements on a page. To use inspect mode, simply select an element on the page and click the “Inspect” button in the toolbar.

The execution of the code is displayed in the Execution Panel.

The errors that are occurring are displayed in the Error Panel.
