Is it possible to detect when I click on the "Background Page" for my test plugin on the "chrome://extensions/" page? This question has been boggling my mind.
Currently, whenever I open the background page, the console remains undocked. After reading a post on Stack Overflow about detecting if the Chrome console is open (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7798748/find-out-whether-chrome-console-is-open), I tried implementing the suggested solution within each content script. But, I struggle to make the plugin itself detect its own console opening.
Even after incorporating the function discussed in the aforementioned post into my background.js, it doesn't seem to pick up on anything:
chrome.tabs.query({url:'chrome-devtools://*/*'}, function(tabs){
if (tabs.length > 0){
console.log('opened');
}
});
I would greatly appreciate any guidance or advice on this matter.
