How to revert to old style firefox inspect tool?

Hi,

I am a developer. Firefox recently changed the way the Inspect tool highlights the element in question. Instead of a solid box will translucent fill for the content, padding and margin boxes, it only shows the outline of those boxes and it's very problematic to work with.

In the attachment I am highlighting the words "Shipping and Return Policy" and the light blue, purple and yellow outline represent the content, padding and margin boxes respectively.

How can I revert back to the old style where it shows the translucent boxes filled with respective colors instead of just the outlines.

You could try using userContent.css. The inspector is a chrome document.

Maybe try the default System theme if you currently have another theme selected.
