Viewing the UI element names in FF65? Inspector Gone?

Which Developer Tool in FF65 can be used to inspect the names and CSS code for User Interface elements, such as TabsToolbar, PersonalToolbar, etc?

Last year, I was able to hover the mouse pointer over a UI object (a tab, the address bar, toolbar button, etc) and see the corresponding CSS names. Now, I'm unable to find the correct Inspector.

Please help.

Thanks!

The browser toolbox is the only way to inspect elements from the user interface. It doesn't show CSS rules or selectors directly, but you can use the "Pick an element..." button at the left end of the Inspector toolbar select a specific item and inspect this item in the Inspector.

Thank you philipp. So far I do not see the tool that shows the CSS structure of the browser. But still searching :)
