Inspector class

Inspector can wrap any child, and will display its control panel and information overlay on top of that child.

You should use Inspector as a wrapper to WidgetsApp.builder or MaterialApp.builder.

If isEnabled is null, then Inspector is automatically disabled on production builds (i.e. kReleaseMode is true).

You can disable the widget inspector or the color picker by passing false to either isWidgetInspectorEnabled or isColorPickerEnabled.

There are also keyboard shortcuts for the widget inspector and the color picker. By default, pressing Shift will enable the color picker, and pressing Command or Alt will enable the widget inspector. Those shortcuts can be changed through widgetInspectorShortcuts and colorPickerShortcuts.

isPanelVisible controls the visibility of the control panel - setting it to false will hide the panel, but the other functionality can still be accessed through keyboard shortcuts. If you want to disable the inspector entirely, use isEnabled.
