When in the Firefox dev tools panel and inspecting the elements of an HTML webpage, the element my cursor hovers over gets blacked out.

It's annoying to have to open chrome each time I have to write a userstyle or something, especially when Firefox has much better developer tools otherwise. So I hope it isn't a "feature", but a bug on my side!

Anyone knows how to fix this, preferably without having to reset firefox?

You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

  • Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"

You need to close and restart Firefox after toggling this setting.
