How can I inspect disappearing element in a browser?

Question

How can I inspect an element which disappears when my mouse moves away?

Answer 1

An alternative method in Chrome:

• Open devTools (F12).
• Select the "Sources" tab.
• While the element you want is displayed, press F8 (or Ctrl+/). This will break script execution and "freeze" the DOM exactly as it is displayed.
• From this point, use Ctrl+Shift+C to select the element.
