how to show console in chrome dev tools sources view

Question

How can I display the console while in the sources tab for the Chrome developer tools?

It has opened that way for me, so I know it is possible, but if it doesn’t display when I open it, I can get it to.

Answer 1

I couldn't find the Show drawer button stated in Marten's answer. Perhaps it has been removed in the past year and a half. I found it in the "three vertical dots" options menu on the top right though.

Also this can be toggled with the Esc key.

Answer 2

In the top right of the stack inspector, click on the "⋮" next to the "x". Then, click "Show console drawer". You can also hit the Escape key.

Answer 3

I think you were looking for the "Show drawer" button. It looks like

It is three places left of the devtool close (x) button.

Answer 4

I can never find it either when I accidentally turn it off. Here's an updated screenshot from Chrome, Version 83.0.4103.116 (Official Build) (64-bit). It's next to the Settings button in the top right corner, underneath the Close icon. Click the vertical ellipsis, then you will see the option, Show console drawer.
