User Story

There is "hide request details" button that can be used to hide the side bar, but it can't be accessed again after the side bar is closed.
The panel can be opened again only by clicking on a item from the list.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Launch Firefox;
  2. Set devtools.netmonitor.features.requestBlocking to true in about:config;
  3. Access any webpage, press F12 to open the DevTools inspector and select Network tab;

Expected result

  • The user is able to enable or disable Blocking UI from a toggle.

Actual result

  • The Blocking UI can be only enabled by blocking a request from the Network tab list.

Regression Range

  • Not a regression, only visible after implementation of bug 1580728;

Additional notes

Another issue would be that "hide request details" button will hide the panel, but can't be accessed again. The panel can be accessible again only by clicking on a item from the list. There will be a image attached with the button.

Thanks for the report!

This looks like a dup of bug 1581790. Can you please compare?

Thanks!

Yeah, it seems that the On/Off toggle is a dupe. Is there something that can be done with the issue from the Comment 1?

The user is able to enable or disable Blocking UI from a toggle.

I am not sure if I understand this correctly.
Does it mean that it should be possible to open the "Request Blocking" side panel through a Toolbar button?

Yes, this issue is a dupe for the bug you mentioned in Comment 2.

The thing from Comment 1 is another issue, and I was wondering if there is something that we can do about it?

Summary: NetMonitor blocking - On/Off toggle for the Blocking UI → There is no button for opening the Details side bar

After a discussion with :Honza, myself and :csasca consider that this issue does not need to be tackled anymore.
With the addition of the toggle buttons for both the Search and Blocking features on the bar, there is no need for yet another additional button for opening the left panel.

In regards to this we're closing the issue.
