This little preview / overview / miniature view of the markup code is getting in my way and I can't figure out how to get rid of it... It feels like I'm overlooking something rather obvious, but... alas, here I am, I can't find anything.

Isisombulu esikhethiweyo

I think I found it, but I don't know how it got turned on.

(1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter/Return. Click the button promising to be careful.

(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste DEVT and pause while the list is filtered

(3) Double-click the devtools.inspector.markupPreview preference to restore it to its default value of false

(4) If the Inspector is currently open in a tab, close it and re-open it so the change takes effect

Does that work for you?

For F's sake, it didn't upload my picture.... Circle just kept spinning, and now it's not there.

Here it is (hopefully)

Edit: ...now that I managed to upload the screenshot on the original answer I'd like to delete this reply. But it seems I can't.
