How to enable Inspect function within right-click menu on custom dialog when debugging Google apps script?

Question

I'm developing a file picker function in Google sheet, using Google Picker API. Now I'm able to show a custom dialog window to pick files from my Google drive, but the result doesn't fully meet my needs, I would like to debug and find out any wrong script in HTML which shows in the dialog window. However, when I right-click and select Inspect in a new popup window, it's grey and invalid, unable to debug. What's wrong? Does our company's Google manager restrict users to debug?

Here is a screenshot to show my problem:

Hello, can you provide more information on your setup? How are you showing this file picker on the first place? — ZektorH, Dec 02 '19 at 16:47

Are you able to click outside of the modal and inspect it?

You can also press F12 to open the developer tools.

Also, ctrl+shift+C will open the developer tools with the element picker tool selected.

No, I'm not able to click outside of the modal window. Others become inactive. F12 doesn't work, and ctrl+shift+C doesn't either. – Folsen Yang Nov 23 '19 at 15:19
