Sorry for using some made up term but I have no idea what this little menu is called. So I referred to it as "Window Inspector"
I have 2 systems opening the same project, one is 17.3 preview 6 and the other is 17.3.2.
On the preview version I can see this menu when I debug my MAUI app in Windows. I cannot see it on the 17.3.2 release, which seems to also be part of a wider debugging issue that I'm experiencing.
Any idea how to fix this? Maybe I have changed a setting somewhere but am not aware of what.
Thanks in advance!

In VS2015 U3 if I try to use XAM.Forms Previewer the interface is empty and have only the "Android Phone" message without my XAML user interface.
I tried to rebuild the solution but the preview still doesn't works!
Whats happened?
Thanks in advance.
To be honest, XAML Previewer still has alot of issues with Visual Studio 2015. I'm encountering the same problem and I just followed the steps from an official Xamarin blogpost. There are workarounds shared by other developers, but it didn't work for me. See link.
But, I'd suggest you try out Gorilla Player. It's an instant Xamarin Forms XAML Previewer. You can also simultaneously view the design without compiling.
Hope it helps!
I have Updated Xcode yesterday from version 7 to version 8.1 overnight and deleted the xcode 8.0 beta that i had!
Today I tried to Open all my projects, and when I go to the storyboard, I get the following Error..
An internal Error Occured. Editing Functionality may be limited. Report a Bug (which I did).
The project that I opened, does not use size classes or autolayout.
I have searched many questions on the net, which pointed that the problem is caused by projects without autolayout. or suggested that i clean xcode, simulator, deleted derived data folder.. all without success..
I also tried saving the storyboard as an Xcode7x file with no success..
Finally I tried creating a new SingleView Application and added a UIButton to it.. (while using size classes, autolayout..) still the same.. so it's definitely an Xcode Bug issue.. Not an autolayout incompatibility problem.
any hints?
p.s. compiling the project will actually run great, and all ui elements will show as intended. I don't have Xcode7 installed anymore.. any suggestions?
I can not reproduce the crashe, but I could fix messed up UI by setting up the following under Editor menu -> Canvas:
It was fixed when i updated xcode!
I searched StackOverflow and it doesn't look like many people are having this problem, but for me, this happens very, very frequently. Maybe not every time, but perhaps every other time.
Once I try to build and run the app, Xcode crashes, and in a strange way: it just disappears with no error messages, no suggestion to report the problem, nothing at all. This happened with Xcode 6.0 as well. It doesn't matter whether I am running the app on a device or on an emulator.
To prevent the crash, I need to Product > Clean. If I do this clean each time before running the app, crashes do not happen, but once I forget to do that, Xcode can crash any moment.
I don't think I ever had this crash with an old project, but it keeps happening with the project that I started in Xcode 6.0.
Because of that, iOS development is becoming for me quite a painful exercise, similar to pre-Android-Studio Android development.
Is it just my problem, or maybe someone else is having it? Maybe someone has a solution?
I just started running into the same issue and found a workaround for it. Found it to be an issue with building when Xcode is full screen. Seems silly, but so far exiting full screen mode has worked for me. I've been able to re-introduce the issue after building full screen a few times, and then instantly fix it again by exiting full screen.
Yeah, it's not that the app is crashing, it's just that the click is triggering the red close window button behind the red button (yeah, seriously). You'll notice, Xcode is still open, it's just that the window has closed. You might also notice that sometimes when you click "stop" in full screen mode, it switches to non full screen. Again, the tap is passing through the run/stop buttons to the underlying window controls.
So dumb.
I solved it using 'cmd + R' instead of clicking the run button
There used to be a pretty nifty command in xcode 5 where you could simulate the document. I mean when you pressed this option, only the UI of the app got loaded and then you can just see how the autolayout is working.
I forgot where this is and I'd upgraded to Xcode 6.0. COuld anyone help me where this option is in xcode?
Yes, it is gone. There's no way to get it back.
However, you can instead preview .xib or storyboard files in assistant editor. This dose not open a new window, however, the storyboard file shows the UI preview by default.
Running JDK 1.7 on Mac OS X and suddenly breakpoints on my project are not working, and they are appearing greyed out. They were working earlier today, so not sure what I have done to cause this. I am using Intellij 13.1.3. Why would breakpoints stop working like this?
Oh Gee - I just saw the "Mute Breakpoint" button in the debugger window. My mistake: picture below for the next person who might be as inattentive as me:
Very easy to do with a touch bar and not realise. The icon on the touch bar is more obvious than the one in the debug panel.
