How to inspect the CSS file in Angular 5 or line to change CSS if we want any CSS?

I am making project in Angular 5. When I inspect the CSS there is tag. If we want to change or find out that CSS is coming from which file basically or which line number of that file (like we do in normal html page). How can I find it?
With angular, the CSS is injected straight into the html page during compilation.
Therefor it's not possible to see where the CSS came from with the DevTools.
However, it is possible to see the CSS styles applied to an element, if you want to find out which file it came from, you will have to search the project.(ctrl+shift+f)
If you're using Google Chrome, you can use the developer console. Safari has a similar interface, but I'm not as familiar with that.
To access the developer console on Chrome, use keys Cmd-Option-I and you should see a console pop up on the right of your browser window. Next, if it isn't already selected, select the Elements tab at the top. You should now see the html that your browser rendered into the site.
Next, you'll want to select the element you want to inspect. You can either do this by accessing the nested HTML structure directly, or if you select the mouse icon at the top left of the window, you can select an element on the webpage and it will be expanded in the developer console.
Once you've selected an element (it should be grey/blue highlighted), you can see its styling at the bottom of your tab. The styling is in decreasing hierarchy order: the top elements override the bottom ones. You can see the styling is grouped based off of the id/class that it is applied to and at the top of each section is the file line of from which the styling came. Click that link to see the file!

Transition not being captured by subtree & attribute breakpoints Chrome developer tools

I have a webpage on which if a tab key is pressed when in the last textbox a side pane from the right slides(like a side menu).
In chrome development tools I can see it is an aside tag with classes control-sidebar control-sidebar-dark but setting DOM break points(subtree & attribute) on the aside tag is not capturing anything.
On looking into DOM it seems like it is not being manipulated at all(which I expected sliding in should be doing) as I do not see the color blink on HTML tags that chrome developer tool shows for the affected elements.
I was expecting the javascript to be handling the sliding in of the aside tag but how could it be determined in this scenario? Could this be due to CSS only animation or something if yes than how to debug that?
I also tried to record in the animation tab of developer tools but it also stays blank.
This is happening on a privileged section of the site so I m sorry for not being able to put code sample or URL.
PS: The template is some modified version of http://www.ampleadmin.wrappixel.com/ampleadmin-html/ampleadmin-rtl/index.html(the navigation panel on right) but it is getting recorded in dev tool animation panel while mine doesnt.
I found out the cause. There are anchor tags inside the panel which get focused on when the tab is pressed from last textbox. There was no animation,CSS or JS involved.
Anchor(A) tags are focus able by default and the panel dont slide in when they are removed.

Accessing the CSS and HTML on wordpress version 4.8.1

I'm having a hard time trying to access my CSS & HTML files on my WordPress blog.
I posted a screenshot of what I CAN access, but it's not super straight forward,
However, I need to get into these settings so that I can change the display settings or screen dimensions?
My issue is that whenever someone goes onto my webpage: RobertNolfiRoofing.com
and they resize the window- it moves my content all around. What I want is a fixed setting so that if someone were to resize the browser window it would have a scroll bar, rather than moving content around.
Thanks!

In Wordpress 4.8.1, you can use (in almost any theme) the "Customizer" to add your own CSS: In the backend dashboard, choose menu Design > Customizer, which opens the customizer in a column at the left side. There, the last line is "custom CSS", where you can add CSS rules which either are additional or can overwrite existing CSS.

Is there a tool to examine HTML page without clicking?

My problem is this - when I click the down button on any input control on my form in Chrome a popup window is displayed. I am positive my code does not do it. The fact that it happens only in Chrome makes me think of some misbehaving Chrome plugin/extension.
Anyway, I would like to see the HTML element responsible for this popup. However, I cannot find it in the dev tools and trying to focus on it does not work - the popup closes the moment I click the page.
So, my question - is there a easy way to get hold on this HTML element without clicking the page?
I am using Chrome 23.0.1271.64 with the following extensions (according to the Chrome itself):
Advanced REST client 3.0.30
JSONView 0.0.32
OneClickDownload 1.2 Web
Developer 0.4.1
This looks just like the standard input field suggestion box. I suspect it is not part of the web page. Therefore it won't appear in the DOM and you can't style it, because it is part of the browser not the web page (although it appears over the top of the web page).
You can suppress it by putting the attribute & value autocomplete=off on the form field, although that is from HTML5 and will not work in all browsers just yet. See Is there a W3C valid way to disable autocomplete in a HTML form?

How to debug a popover?

On this fiddle http://jsfiddle.net/mjmitche/qVdEy/6/, you can see that the alignment of the text inside the popover is perfect, however, when I put the exact same css/js/html on my site, the text is larger than the container!
I'm trying to figure out what is happening using firebug, but I have to move my cursor off the popover to use firebug, and then the firebug disappears. I can't figure out what settings in my code is changing the presentation. The popovers are created using Twitter Bootstrap.js (you can see the resources in the fiddle)
Nobody really answered the question "How to debug a popover" ::: Simply set the popover to open on load >> $('#element').popover('show')
What I do is kind of weird and only seems to work in Chrome, not Firebug.
The steps are:
Open the Chrome inspector in a new window
Make sure part of the inspector is overtop of the button you're
trying to activate (which is in the background window
Activate the browser window and hover over the button (this activates the popup), now hit
alt+tab (cmd+` on OSX) to switch to the inspector window.
This will not trigger the mouseOut event and leave your popup
attached to the DOM body node! Since you're already in the inspector
you can navigate to it and see the css problem.
Well after looking at the popover CSS, it seems there is no explicitly defined font-size: http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/1.4.0/bootstrap.min.css (Just do a find on "popover" and look through the CSS)
Perhaps try adding the following CSS and tweaking it from there:
.popover, .popover h3.title, .popover .content { font-size: 14px; }
Hope that helps :)
This is the kind of thing I created my new HTML box visualizer tool for. Check it out!
HTML Box Visualizer - GitHub
open devtools of the browser, then set a breakpoint of Mouse Click. Just Click the target of popover panel and U will see the opening popover. Just debug it like other normal DOM block
