Dreamweaver Classic Trise Dreamweaver has many rich user wizard features, which makes it easy to resist. These easy-to-execute techniques can guide you to create a new site smoothly.
Connection window
Dreamweaver user interface is split into several windows, and only a few windows can only be accommodated on the screen when it is in a working state. In order to save real operating conditions, the best policy is to connect the open window (Dock). You may try the title bar of the drag window, which can complete the connection action in many programs, but does not take effect in Dreamweaver.
Implementing a window connection is to drag the TAB column of the window with a mouse instead of the title bar. Try to drag the TAB column of a window and brush another window. When you see a black border, release the mouse button, you will find that 2 windows have been combined. Now you can connect any more windows according to this method, eventually merge into a window, so that you can save a lot of screen space to see the actual work. However, please note that the loader window, the property window, and the site window cannot be connected.
data input
Dreamweaver allows you to enter the data directly into the table, which is more likely to be compared to the cell. However, if you want to enter the data command with insert / table data command, it will be a bit more troublesome. Unfortunately, Dreamweaver can only enter a .txt file with a separator. If you want to handle the Word or Excel file, you can output them to the .txt file, and then enter in Dreamweaver. You will find such a handling method simply like a dream!
Delete, recovery, repeat
Enter data to the table can save a lot of operation time, but the most useful feature in Dreamweaver is its historical window. In this window, once the document is opened, each of the following operations will be recorded so that you can track the operation behavior and simply undo or repeat the last step. Just select the last step in the historical window and press the DELETE button or the drag sliding indicator to delete several steps at a step. Similarly, click the Replay button in the window to execute some step again.
I can't save more than 50 steps? This is a default value. To improve this value, select Edit / Parameter Selection, confirm that the "Ordinary" function page is
"Historical steps maximum"
Enter a higher value in the field. Please note that the larger the number of set saved steps, the greater the content consumed.
