...not sure what to title this one. It is born of frustration though. Certainly Advanced Themer helps with Bricks. No doubt. But it sure seems to add some tricks that are designed to raise blood pressures to heart attack levels. Let's just dive right in.

A 'learned counter trick', is to have a base install of Bricks, without Advanced Themer, to see where something is without Advanced Themer.

What is the ID of my Element?

Bricks: Click on the Element, look to your left, and the CSS ID is displayed, even with the prepended #, so you know it is an ID

Advanced Themer: Click on an Element, look to your left, and you'll see the CSS Class, or maybe one of them, and you know it's a class because it is prepended by a . (period)

Solution (AKA so where in the Forking Heck is it now): Move your mouse over to that area where the CSS ID used to be, and some icons will appear in that blank area that wasn't being used for anything at all and could have had the icons displayed by default, but doesn't, then click the X (which apparently means 'deselect'), then you'll see the CSS ID. Obvious, huh?
