CSS, Design Mode vs Live Mode vs Missing Manual

Hi,
I downloaded the trial version of DreamWeaver to see if I'd like to purchase it. To get a feeling for it, I've been using the CSS3 Missing Manual and doing the tutorials. Several times I've put code into DreamWeaver then clicked over to Live/Design Modes to see how it was coming along and what was supposed to happen wasn't visible BUT when I copy and past either the CSS or HTML into Coda, it comes out just as the book says it should. Any suggestions as to why?
I just tried to add text shaddow using the following which works in Coda but not DreamWeaver -- and it's really frustrating.
body{background-color:rgb(255,255,255);border: 3px solid rgb(75,75,75); box-shadow:0 0 15px 5px rgba(51,51,255,1);width:760px; margin-top:20px; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;padding:15px;}
Also, when I add CSS into my webpage in DW Live Mode will show it but Design Mode will not. Is that normal? What is the use of Design Mode vs Live Mode?
Thank you,
ct

But the code I listed above doesn't preview (correctly) in either view, but will view correctly in Coda (a cheaper than DreamWeaver webpage builder). I don't understand why. It there a special property to doing floating that I'm not aware of? Theimage with the blue bloat is from Coda, the other image is from DW. Notice the difference? It's the same code. How can that be? I'm guessing that DW is set up differently but I'm not sure how to change it so that it displays correctly. Any suggestions?

Flash Builder 4 CSS Design Mode

Hello,
     I would like to know why CSS Design mode was removed from Flash Builder 4?
     I am a Design/Developer so it was much easier for me to use CSS in Design mode.
     What are my options? Is there any other tools for visual editing CSS for a Flex application?
Thanks

Hi Fernando, sorry for the delayed response. CSS Design Mode is not available for Flex 4 projects, but it is still available in Flex 3 projects. The reason for this is that designing components in Flex 4 is often a lot different, since it relies highly on the new spark skinning architecture. There is, however, an Appearance panel available in design view which supplies a set of the main inheriting styles. Setting these styles in the Appearance panel will result in assigning values to a global style selector.
I hope this helps,
Rob

Flash Builder Design Mode Bug Workaround (!!!)

I've been fighting this annoyance since FB4 came out, and while I still don't think that custom/embedded fonts in design view are fixed by this, I've been able to reproduce this "fix" (workaround) to get design view to show fonts/theme correctly under some very specific circumstances on two separate PCs.
If anyone from Adobe sees this I'd like to know whether this sounds familiar or is possibly logged as a bug already somewhere in JIRA.. if not I could probably do that as long as it won't be a wasted effort.
The problem:
You're using a Halo theme but certain CSS settings (specifically and possibly limited to FONTS) don't work properly in design view even though they work fine in Flash. Essentially this makes design view practically useless since choice of font family, size, and weight can effect component sizing if you aren't hard-coding component sizes (ugh)... ruining your efforts to use design view for UI design if your UI has any level of complexity (or uses absolute positioning at all).
The specific circumstances seem to be:
You're using the Halo theme (you have no special 'skinning' requirements and want Halo defaults w/only CSS customizations)
You've upgraded a Flex 3 project to Flex 4 SDK (not sure if this is needed to reproduce the issue)
Using a regular non-embedded font (embedded fonts still do crap out, but even this 'workaround' doesn't fix that problem)
You're using swc library files such as the Swiz lib, Mate, Flexlib, etc. (I think it's ANY swc, not specific to any one)
This may also only apply when using an "mx only" project (no Spark), since we're using Halo here
The two part fix (as far as I can tell you need BOTH before design view works correctly):
In .actionScriptProperties, add the following bolded line after the compiler tag like so:
</compiler>
<theme themeIsDefault="false" themeIsSDK="true" themeLocation="${SDK_THEMES_DIR}/frameworks/themes/Halo"/>
<applications>
(I think this may only apply to 'upgraded' projects, as the line does seem to be present in newly created FB4 Halo projects. My guess is that an "upgraded" project should have such a line added, but doesn't get it due to an oversight/bug.)
The somewhat painful, and definitely odd part. Remove all your SWC library files from /libs. Grab the source code for the libraries and drop them into your project's /src folder as if you'd written them yourself. (This may require some research and knowledge on special requirements to build the libs, such as with Swiz's compiler metadata compiler settings which you need to put into your project's settings.) After you get things set up right and the project compiles again, doing a refresh of design view should finally give you proper looking Halo controls and fonts so they look identical to the Flash runtime view.
Why this works, I've no idea. I suspect it has something to do with that stupid and annoying (and supposedly 'harmless') design mode warning message you get when you include a library like Swiz or Mate in your project. (Design mode could not load xxxxxxxxxxxxx.swc. It may be incompatible with this SDK, or invalid. (DesignAssetLoader.CompleteTimeout)) - this warning doesn't break your application, people seem to think it's just a harmless warning..but is it breaking design view?
If anyone has any idea what's going on here, why this 'fixes' the problem (a better work around), or has any other insight I'd love to hear it. The combo of needing to do two things (in my specific case) to fix the problem really made this a ROYAL PAIN, I still can't believe I found it.

CSS rules show up in design mode, but not in live or in browser.

So some rules work in the browser some appear when in design mode, but not in live mode or in the browser.
In one case there is no competing rules I applied background color and border color to a dynamic table and I see the colors in design view. In another there is a competing rule, but the one that wins is #content, when the rule I want #content #footer p is (obviously) a compound and at the bottom of the rules.
Any thoughts?
Thanks
Gregg

AH In preparing my stylesheet to show you, I noticed the rule above those two was missing it's ending curly brace. Problem solved! That's what I get for checking code when I am sleepy!
Thank you SnakeEyez02

Design mode/ Live Mode

I know there is a simple fix to this but I can't figure it out. I have a website that has a few pages created in Dreamweaver CS6. I few weeks back, the site and the webpages looked good. Then a few days ago, I logged into Dreamweaver and began to update a new page for our current winners, and this is when something went wrong.
In design mode, my web page looks like its supposed to, background image and all the image attachments including the Logo are where they are suppose to be. However, in Live mode my page is all white, and all the attached images are not viewable. The attachment images have a ? mark in the center of each box where an image would be placed.
I now have a webpage that up until a week or so ago worked and now, whenever someone views that page, all they see is a white screen.
Can someone please assist me in getting this issue resolved.
Thanks!
Joann

Copy & paste this revised code into a new, blank document. Incidentally, you should keep embedded CSS code to a minimum. Also group all page specific styles into one set of <style> tags below the external style sheet. Winner Dates and WinnerDates are not valid. And they lack .class or #ID designation and no spaces allowed in selector names.

Style changes show in Design mode but not in Live View or online.

I'm using CS5. I modified a style sheet and the changes showed up in Design mode just the way I wanted them. I switched to Live View and they did not show up. I put the new style sheet on the server and it the changes do not show up online. The basic change was to add a border around some text that serves as a link to another page in the site. The source code can be viewed here: The Akshaya Home | Akshaya USA. The relavent lines are 71 and 72 at the bottom of the banner div. The CSS code is:
.button_donate{
          font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
          font-size: 24px;
          padding: 0px 8px 0px 8px;
          border-top: 3px;
          border-top-style: solid;
          border-top: #1C778C;
          border-left: 3px;
          border-left-style: solid;
          border-left: #1C778C;
          border-bottom: 3px;
          border-bottom-style: solid;
          border-bottom: #0A2B33;
          border-right: 3px;
          border-right-style: solid;
          border-right: #0A2B33;
          position: absolute;
          right: 50px;
          top: 139px;
.button_volunteer{
          font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
          font-size: 24px;
          padding: 0px 8px 0px 8px;
          border-top: 3px;
          border-top-style: solid;
          border-top: #1C778C;
          border-left: 3px;
          border-left-style: solid;
          border-left: #1C778C;
          border-bottom: 3px;
          border-bottom-style: solid;
          border-bottom: #0A2B33;
          border-right: 3px;
          border-right-style: solid;
          border-right: #0A2B33;
          position: absolute;
          left: 40px;
          top: 140px;
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Ed

Try this:
.button_donate {
    font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
    font-size: 24px;
    padding: 0px 8px 0px 8px;
    border: 3px outset #1C778C;
    position: absolute;
    right: 50px;
    top: 139px;
Repeat with .button_volunteer.

Viewing in design mode.

After upgrading to DW 10 CS4, some of my files created with
DW 2004 MX will not fully display in design mode. The background is
there with a heading image (American Flag) but the rest of the
content is missing. It shows fine in "Live View" mode but not in
"Split" or "Design" mode.

That usually suggests some invalid code in your page.
Validate the page
here:
http://validator.w3.org/
fix any errors and then try again with CS4.

CSS Runs in Design, But Not Live

I added a CSS definition to "repeat-x" a 1px background image in DW CS4. I uploaded the page to my site and everything worked fine. After making a few additional changes (none to the CSS that I remember), the page stills displays correctly in design mode. However, as soon as I go live, I lose the background that I defined in CSS. What could be cuasing this problem?

Maybe you are refering to the background on the local PC, not the server?
As ever, a link to the site would help people to identify the problem.

Eclipse +flex 3 plugin crashes when trying to see mxml file in design mode

Hi,
I have strange problem I've been struggling with for 3 days.
I have eclipse-jee-europa-fall2-win32(eclipse europa 3.3.1.1)
+ adobe flex 3 eclipse plugin.
My workspace consists of several projects + one library.
There is not problem when trying to edit any mxml file when
my library is not imported yet. Once I import it to my workspace I
cannot see any mxml file in design mode since it crashes with the
following msg in log:
Did anyone have similar problem and maybe knows the
solutiuon? I've reinstalled/redownoaded eclipse, flex plugin, flash
players and so on. What's more it happens only on my machine - same
project on different one works without crushing.

I've found solution by myself so I'll present it here. Maybe
someone will need it.
The problem of such behaviour was that Flex plugin always (at
least on my pc) wants to ustart eclipse using its own JRE from here
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 3 Plug-in\jre (default dir).
This environment is Java 5. When you go to
eclipse>window>preferences>Java>Installed JREs and you
delete default Flex JRE, add new to point to for example C:\Program
Files\Java\jre1.6.0_04 eclipse still uses JRE from C:\Program
Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 3 Plug-in\jre. Do not know why
Flex/eclipse does that but if you simply overwrite C:\Program
Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 3 Plug-in\jre files with newer JRE from
C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_04 all works perfectly.
Hope it helps somebody ;-)
thanks Artur

GIF won't play in design mode, but previews fine... any ideas?

My animated gif loops in browser preview, but only plays on the stage when i move it around. If I leave it selected without moving, it sits there frozen. Any ideas why my gif won't play properly in design mode? Thanks!

Thank you for confirmation that that is how things should work. I'm new to
the program and following some Lynda tutorials to get up to speed. My most
recent lesson included the gif in exercise files, and everything seems to
function both in Photoshop and the browser. Even in edge design mode, if I
press on the gif and move it around, it plays and loops fine. But as soon
as I stop moving the gif, it returns to first frame and stays stuck there.
Whether selected or not, it just sits there frozen. If I switch
applications and come back to edge, I catch a glimpse of other frames, as
if the gif was playing in the background. But then it stops again, kind of
like a watched pot The behavior seemed glitchy to me, but I thought I
might be missing a setting somewhere. I'll try with other gifs, I guess..
Thanks again!

Why is the character style for hyperlinks not displaying correctly in design mode/viewing/output?

I am using RH9 and generating WebHelp, and I needed to globally bump up the font size of just my hyperlinked text. I went into my Style Sheet > Character tab, changed the font size of the various character settings for hyperlinks, and clicked Apply and then OK. Normally, this would change all of my hyperlink text font sizes immediately across all of my topics. However, this time, it made no changes to any existing hyperlinked text, and it only affected new hyperlinks that I subsequently added. For the existing hyperlinks, I can only manually change the font size of the each hyperlink one at a time, but that's crazy (there's 100's in this help).
I can successfully change other characters styles and paragraph styles. This issue only affects the hyperlink character styles. It also shows up in all RH modes - Design mode, viewing, and in the final output.
Is this an indication of a corrupted style sheet or some other combination of events that I have yet to discover?

Hi,
You probably have inline styling in your project overwriting the font size of your style sheet. How are you changing the font size of the individual hyperlinks?
There is a workaround for inline styling: Open your CSS in notepad and add !important after the font-size:
font-size: 4pt !important;
Note that this is a workaround, not a solution. As a solutions you can remove all the style attributes from your hyperlinks to force them to take the CSS styling again.
Greet,
Willam

Background color does not show in a design mode preview

Hi,
I installed Macromedia studio 8 a couple of days ago, and
started using Dreamweaver 8 with a "Missing Manual" book. I'm on
first chapter and following tutorial. It says to change a
background color to blue, and I did that. But this change was not
reflected in a design mode preview. I checked the code and it's
there. I viewed in an IE6, and it was there. My coworker installed
an evaluation version on his pc and it worked fine. I guess it's my
pc that has problem. I had IE7 and VS2005 on the pc when I
installed Macromedia 8. Due to help crash, I uninstalled IE7. It
did not solve the problem, so I uninstalled VS2005 and related
programs, and it did not solve the problem. I uninstalled and
reinstalled Dreamweaver 8 a couple of times, and it did not help.
Does anyone out there who have similar experiences, please share it
with me? I post this here before redo my pc. Thanks.

Design mode could not load ... It may be incompatible...:FB4 Beta 2 and Flex SDK 4.1

Hello,
ever since I upgraded to the latest nightly builds about two weeks ago (SDK 4.1) I get the error mentioned above, and the design mode of Flash Builder 4 Beta 2 doesn't work any more:
Design mode could not load he.enwipe.core.swc. It may be incompatible with this SDK, or invalid. (DesignAssetLoader.CompleteTimeout)
Design mode could not load PureMVC_AS3_MultiCore_1_0_5.swc. It may be incompatible with this SDK, or invalid. (DesignAssetLoader.CompleteTimeout)
and also all other "swc" inside my project that do not come directly from the SDK or Flash Builder.
Any ideas what could be the cause?

Hi,
Did you switch your projects build option to merge into code rather than have runtime libraries generated.
David.
[edit'] I really should sleep a bit more- I miss read the question, but you will probably need to break down your project to see what the issue is mxml by mxml, one thing is that any mxml headers need to halo name space renamed to mx.
as below -
xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx"

Problem w/FB2 Mac OS X Design mode

Can not switch to design mode w/o getting this error message
""An unknown item is declared as the root of your MXML ". This msg
pops up even with a new file generated by the builder wizard. This
bug doesn't exist on winXP with the same file, so this seems to be
a Mac version issue.
thx

Hi, I'm having a similar problem to Dirk. I'm setting up Leopard server on a brand new Mac Pro that won't boot from the server DVD which only has 10.5.4. I found the article that Tony mentions, and this method does indeed allow the server software to install over the client OS. The procedure did get through to the end on each occasion I've followed it though, with no black screen or crash.
But - like Dirk found - some of the usual "server assistant" questions just don't show up.
The "TCP/IP Connection" page is a no show and the "Network Names" page doesn't show either. I'm particularly concerned about this latter page being missing as I'm not sure how to enter the primary DNS name after the install has completed.
I tried the Apple KB article's method again in case I'd missed something - and this time I made sure that the ethernet port was configured with a static IP at the client stage before introducing the server DVD (I'd left it on the default DHCP setting on my first attempt).
Can anyone tell me the correct way to enter the primary DND name for the server AFTER the server assistant has finished up please? Or another way to do this "server over client" install?
One other thing I noticed after each install attempt was that - upon launching Server Admin for the first time - the NFS service was active. Usually no service is active at launch. This fact along with the Apple article's note about kerberos makes me worry about what else is different when this type of server over client install is performed.
Thanks for any pointers,
Paul

Invalid Token while viewing Slide Show Component in Design Mode

Hi Guys,
I am having an issue where my SWF files that appear in a slide show component are displaying an invalid token error while in design mode in Xcelsius. When I export the SWF file to Infoview, this error flashes on the screen for a second before the logon token is passed and the child SWF is loaded.
I am trying to find a way to solve my issue so the invalid token error message does not appear and therefore does not get flashed to the user before the file actually loads.
I downloaded Fix Pack 1 for SP3 because there was a line in the fixed issues detailing:
"An Invalid logon token message appeared in Infoview when you viewed Flash objects (SWF files) that contain a QaaWS or Live Office connection."
"This issue has been resolved".
It is still happening even with FP 1 installed.
Has anyone ever encountered this issue before and found a solution for it.
Thanks in advance!!
- Anthony

Ok, I found out it has definitively something to do with the "Design mode could not load swiz-framework-1.0.0-RC1.swc. It may be incompatible with this SDK, or invalid. (DesignAssetLoader.CompleteTimeout)" warning. This somehow affects the loading of the mx:Image.
Recompiling the SWC might work with the swiz swc, but there are more swc's giving this error like the google maps swc which does not have the source avalable freely.
This is a real pain as I like to use a mockup image in Design Mode to place components exactly as provided by the design team.
