DevTools: Tips for changing values in HTML & CSS


Introduction

You can easily change numeric values in DevTools. This is a handy feature for when you want to quickly prototype CSS property values.
 

Instructions

For example, if the Styles Pane has a CSS rule such as:
 

body {
    transform: rotate(0deg);
}


You can place your cursor on the numeric portion (0deg) and use the following key combinations:

  • Alt + Up / Alt + Down increment/decrement by 0.1
    • 0deg ⮕ 0.1deg ⮕ 0.2deg
  • Up / Down increment/decrement by 1
    • 0deg ⮕ 1deg ⮕ 2deg
  • Shift + Up / Shift + Down increment/decrement by 10
    • 0deg ⮕ 10deg ⮕ 20deg
  • Cmd + Up / Cmd + Down increment/decrement by 100
    • 0deg ⮕ 100deg ⮕ 200deg
    • On Windows: Ctrl + Up / Ctrl + Down


Bonus tip with HTML elements

As a bonus tip, there is basic support for incrementing and decrementing numeric values on the Elements Panel. For example, given an element like:

<div data-item="item1"></div>

You can use the shortcuts mentioned earlier to increment and decrement the numeric value (item1 ⮕ item2 ⮕ item3, etc.) within the HTML markup.
