Description
The Platform Tools module found in the Library says, at the bottom of its rendered output:
As with most GTK applications, you can use the keyboard shortcut
to open the Inspector and select an object to see what it is made of.Ctrl+Shift+I
Except... Ctrl+Shift+I doesn't open the inspector. On my Fedora 36 system, at least, a Ctrl+Shift+I in Nautilus (for example) results in a "Select All" being performed in the focused window.
Ctrl+Shift+D launches the GTK Inspector.
Edit: (In fact, Ctrl+Shift+I doesn't even open the inspector in Workbench. Even there, the only working shortcut AFAICT is Ctrl+Shift+D.)
