Inspect on macos:

INSPECT-macos

Inspecting on chrome:

INSPECT chrome

This means users are unable to use this feature, since we release DevTools as a web app.

@elliette Do any errors show up in the console or in the debug logs tracked by devtools?

This is happening because we are using the Chrome's native context menus, so any of the Flutter context menus don't appear.

Flutter recently added the ability to disable the Chrome's native context menu, but that currently prevents a user from pasting into a text field. See flutter/engine#43360 (which should fix that bug) for details.

The paste button bug will be fixed with this framework PR: flutter/flutter#132093. Sorry for blocking for you guys! 😊
