Using right-click options
Another way to access the inspect element option is by interacting directly with any element on your browser screen. Since this option contains the coded information on the style and design of the page, you can access this option through the web page itself.
Right-click on any web page of your Chrome browser and from the drop-down menu click on the Inspect option. This will show you the developer code that can be changed according to your style.

Using keyboard shortcut
You can also use a keyboard shortcut to inspect any element of a web page on your Chromebook. Make sure that a web page is open when you use either of the two keyboard shortcut, which is:
- Ctrl +Shift + I
- Ctrl +Shift + C
Your developer tools will be open for editing as your screen will split up into two parts. With the Ctrl + Shift + C keyboard shortcut you will find a movable comprehensive code that changes according to each element where your mouse icon is hovering on the web page.
To edit any certain element’s style on your web page, you can click on any photo, text, or other elements on the webpage and then use the first keyboard shortcut to edit the developer code of that element directly.
