Description manikantannaren 2013-06-04 04:53:24 UTC 
[ BUILD # : 201306022301 ]
[ JDK VERSION : 1.7.0_21 ]

I was going through the tutorial on editing CSS in HTML5 projects
(https://netbeans.org/kb/docs/webclient/html5-editing-css.html#addrules)
Using the Netbeans Inspector on Chrome
1. Select the image element
2. Go to Netbeans and 

you will notice that the Img element is shown in the selection view along with
the properties and applied styles

The problem is that they are laid out in a very cramped layout 
Can we move this view to the multi  tab editor along with the source, history
tabs

Personally, I don't think it is good idea because that way you won't be able to see source and CSS Styles at the same time. If you change the size of the CSS Styles window, it should be remembered for next time. Reassigning to proper component for evaluation

I agree that moving the view to the source editor tab, but the properties view is definitely not the right place. Because I see myself using those features more and more than the source editor.
