Bracket’s Live Preview Highlight is an extremely useful feature.
Before using this feature, you should make sure that the “Live Preview” is enabled.
This helps to fix any layout issues fast as you can place your cursor on the tag and it shows the layout/outline of that tag.
The “Live Preview Highlight” feature highlights the selected tag from the editor on the browser like below –
For Example, if you place your cursor on the tag, the entire document will be highlighted. Similarly, if you place cursor on tag, the entire content area will be highlighted and so on.
In the Example above, we have placed cursor on tag and it highlights that particular tags in the browser.
If you are in the CSS file and place your cursor on the tag, then it will highlight all the tags on the browser.
Note/Info:
The Live preview Highlight feature inspired by the Developer Tools feature of browser like Chrome.
