Right click on tab content and choose "Freeze DOM" (while devtool panel is open) to freeze the state of website on demand.

With a frozen DOM, you can:
- Inspect an UI part that only available while hovered / focused (for example: keeping the auto complete dropdown of a text input visible)
- Take a snapshot of an in-progress state (for example: loading state)
