Description

It's quite inconvenient to have to click with the mouse every time for frequently used functions

And I see you're based on vite-plugin-vue-inspector, it allows configuring shortcut keys.,

  /**
   * Define a combo key to toggle inspector
   * @default 'control-shift' on windows, 'meta-shift' on other os
   *
   * any number of modifiers `control` `shift` `alt` `meta` followed by zero or one regular key, separated by -
   * examples: control-shift, control-o, control-alt-s  meta-x control-meta
   * Some keys have native behavior (e.g. alt-s opens history menu on firefox).
   * To avoid conflicts or accidentally typing into inputs, modifier only combinations are recommended.
   * You can also disable it by setting `false`.
   */
  toggleComboKey?: string | false

why this can't?

Research direction

Start by locating the code positioning feature and reviewing how it is invoked. Compare the requested shortcut behavior with the toggleComboKey configuration documented in vite-plugin-vue-inspector; done means a user can configure and use a shortcut for direct invocation without relying on mouse clicks.
