200 bugs and one Dragonfly

September 1, 2011 · by Aleksander Aas

Dragonfly

Developers rejoice! At the break of dawn Opera Dragonfly 1.1 was released from its cage. To celebrate, the team killed more than 200 bugs! Dragonfly also got several new features, and updates. First of all, we have a brand new Inspector Gadget (Ok, it might have a different name, but we think Inspector Gadget sounds awesome). It's now possible to search with the DOM inspector and get more information with the new Network Inspector. :sherlock:

No need to download though, Opera Dragonfly 1.1 will be loaded the next time you inspect any page! Check out the Dragonfly blog for more info. And if you love developer stuff drop by the Opera Developer Network!

    Yes! Css line numbers when inspecting an element. Now Dragonfly is the most powerful inspector out there! Eat that Firebug and Google Chrome's inspector.

    I like so much dragonfly. Is more powerful and much better than other.
    bue.. some time I need run local, with out Internet, and that is the bad point of DragonFly :worried:

    Can you please, think to the furute, and make a version for run off-line? because some time I do not have Internet in some Intranets

    Thanks (and good job!)

    I am already using the experimental version1.1 since long.
    I really love it; specially the search panel. It has always helped me in XPaths.
    And now the stable version! Long live Opera and DragonFly! :bigsmile:

    If you have loaded the inspector at least once, it should also be available offline. Dragonfly uses Application Cache infrastructure, so it stays on your computer even when offline.

    Yes, but some time I on a PC with out Internet and I install Opera but can not use because do not have Internet Access. I Need opera for a medium intranet with software working per php/java servers but... well... Internet access is blocked and when need an inspector I can't now use Dragon Fly :'(

    Hmmm....one option would be to use a Standalone (USB) installation profile for Opera. Set it up using a different PC, set the various caches in opera:config to a very large size. Then clear it with your IT and copy the folder onto your workstation.

    I can sympathize with your unusual circumstance of debugging HTML designs inside a closed network, it makes my fist clench just to think of all the tools that only work online...

    But a portable profile should work; just make sure nobody will freak out if you bring in a memory stick.
