Debugging in Production (Exported App)

By default, Manta only shows devTools windows during development. If you're running the production version of Manta (the one you download and install on your system) it's not possible to access these windows by pressing the shortcut CTRL/CMD+SHIFT+I or choosing Toggle Developer Tools from the View menu (because it's not included in the app).

If you really want to debug the production app, there's one way to do it, which is running the app from Terminal with the --force-devtools flag. Here's how you would do it:

macOS

# Make sure you moved your app into the Application folder first.
open -a /Applications/Manta.app --args --force-devtools

Linux

# Linux AppImage
./Manta-1.1.2-x86_64.AppImage --force-devtools

# Installed App (.deb): 
manta --force-devtools 

Windows

# path to installed exe, for example:
C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Programs\Manta\Manta.exe --force-devtools
