Dreamweaver |
File Management |
Individual files and folders can be created, deleted,
copied and moved in Dreamweaver much as in Windows Explorer. If has been done to the local site in Explorer, however, a message will be appear in Dreamweaver inviting you to Recreate
the Site Cache. Until this is done and updating of links will not take place. |
|
Properties & Formats |
All properties & formats are controlled through
the corresponding palettes options in preferences control how these
are displayed. |
|
Drag & Drop |
Select causes type over or 'copy
over responses to the Paste (CTRL+V) command. Drag and drop
work as well as in Word. Common formats use familiar keys, e.g., CTRL+B
= Normalface - and these are switches (i.e., the same keystrokes reverse
the effect). |
|
HTML editor |
To bring up the HTML Editor, press F10. To enter the html source,
use keystroke CTRL+TAB (switch to return to text mode).
Many features of a given page are more easily altered in html-mode
using the standard codes than in text-mode.
Note that a paragraph assumes the format of the preceeding paragraph
unless a new class is named: e.g., <p class="Normal"
align="justify" - the standard paragraph in Ricorso.

File Transfer Protocol (FTP) |
Dreamweavers File Map enables
Get/Put and Check In/Check Out modes of up-
and down-loading. If the latter is adopted in the Define Site menu,
any file that is double clicked on the Local Site will be brought
over from the Remote site. Dreamweaver will cause computer crashes
if the Site Cache is not regularly recreate. |
