Always open files in code view (with option to switch back to design/split)

I almost never use design view and it's very annoying that Dreamwaver CS4 can't seem to understand and remember that. I can be editing a file one day in code view, and when I open the file again the next day it opens in design view!? Is there a setting for this somewhere or is this a bug? Any suggestions for a solution?
Someone suggested I add the relevant suffixes in the "Open in code view" field (Preferences > File Types / Editors) but Adobe has decided that if I choose to always open a certain file type in code view via this method, I will not be allowed to temporarlily switch to design/split view.
Any other suggestions?

All I can suggest is that you post an official feature request via the official form and wait for Adobe to implement something in CS6 or CS7 (assuming the feature set for CS5 is set in stone by now).

The preference to open in Code view prevents that page type from being opened any other way. It means open ONLY in Code view.
The way that Dreamweaver opens documents follows a logical pattern. If no document is open, the first document is opened in whichever view was active when the last document was closed or Dreamweaver was shut down. If a document is already open, Dreamweaver opens the next document in the same view.
If you always work in Split view, as I do, all documents will open in Split view. The only exception is if you open a file that is set to open in Code view only. If that document is active when you open a new document, it will also be in Code view.
It's logical and simple to understand. If you don't like the way it works, file an enhancement request through the official form at https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform.

Unable to open files or the program with having to switch users.... Why?

Updated to 10.5.6 now when i try to open any filemaker files or the filemaker program it starts to open and closes in a split second. If i log out and open as new user it will open.
I have deleted and reinstalled filemaker and this did not solve the issue. All my other programs & files open without issues. Why is this?

If it works in a new user account, then there's a probability you have a bad preference file. Look for FM's preference files in /Home/Library/Preferences/ then drag them to your Desktop. If FM now works that was the problem. Delete the preference files now on the Desktop. If this didn't solve the problem, let us know.

AppleScript or Terminal Control for "View Options"/"Always open in ... view

Greetings, folks!
I have not been able to figure out how to script (or, even better, a Terminal command line) control of the "Always open in (name of view) view" checkbox in the “View Options” panel for LARGE numbers of windows; I prefer not to use GUI scripting, it takes too long.
I do not EVER want that box unchecked and do not want to have to manually check many thousands of folder’s checkboxes. As soon as I can figure this out, I will set every folder on my hard drives to always open in list view and write a script such that any folder created will automatically be set to always open in list view.
AppleScript can set every attribute value in a window, except the "Always open in (name of view) view" checkbox.
I have always expected that the data would be stored in the “.DS_Store” file, but, AFAICT it is not; changing the value for a “.DS_Store” file, logging out and back in, and then re-opening it in HexEdit or BBEdit showed the pre-change and post-change files to be identical.
Thoughts?
Thanks!!

Additional info, in case anyone is running into this issue...
If I do the following with the "root level" of the disk image, I can set the "Always Open in List View" option.
1. Open the "root level" view of the disk image - for me, it always opens in icon view. Then, select "Show View Options" from the View menu.
2. Check the "Always Open in Icon View" box. While leaving this dialog open, select "as List" from the View menu.
3. Uncheck the "Always Open in Icon View" box. It will instantly turn into "Always Open In List View". Recheck this box immediately, then close dialog. This will make the setting stick.
I've been able to repeat this situation several times. I might be wrong, but it sure acts like a small bug to me. Hope this helps anyone else who might have encountered this issue.

Dreamweaver CC opening files very slow iMac with Fusion drive

I am working on a small website based off on Bootstrap 3. Now that I am almost done with the project opening files take a few seconds to open them (in code view). I have tried the various fixes like resolveremoteurltoipaddress=FALSE but still the files load very slow. On my Windows Machine it loads very fast and that machine is 4 years old. The iMac I am using at work is the latest version with decked out specs and only Dreamweaver CC and Edge Code have very slow opening of files. Creating new documents inside Dreamweaver CC is fast. Is there a way to make Dreamweaver open files faster? How to make it load faster, open documents faster, especially in code view. My initial thought is maybe its because I am linking to a few JS library like TypeKit and jQuery but I have not experience these problems on my Windows PC. Any help would be appreciated.

I can't seem to figure out how to link the image file in code view. It has to be in code view because the image is hidden in Design View so I can't do it in HTML view. Here's the coded section:

Do I not get the "open file after publishing" checkbox with the trial version?

I owned the Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional version on my pc, and recently bought a Mac. Do I not have the option to "Open file after publishing" checkbox with the trial version? Do I have to repurchase the whole program to get that?

uninstall.
download from prodesigntools.com.
if you follow all 7 steps you can directly download a trial here: New Adobe Lightroom 6 (CC) Direct Download Links – Free Trials | ProDesignTools
and activate with your serial number.
if you have a problem starting the download, you didn't follow all 7 steps, or your browser does not accept cookies.
the most common problem is caused by failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com).
failure to obtain that cookie results in an error page being displayed after clicking a link on prodesigntools.com or initiates the download of an incorrect (eg, current) version.

Hierarchy on HANA Calculation View with Optional Input Parameters Fails

Hi,
Has anyone succeeded in building a hierarchy on top of a calculation view with optional input parameters, where an input parameter is not filled?
The original requirement came from the wish to create a parent child hierarchy on a calculation view that was copied into the customer space from a HANA Live Financial Statement query view, but I have found the following when creating a simple level hierarchy on a calculation view that consumes one table. The Calculation View has one Input Parameter where the 'mandatory' box is unchecked.
Calculation view reads ECC table FAGLFLEXT
Simple level based hierarchy on fields PRCTR, RACCT and SEGMENT
Input parameter is used as a filter for PRCTR with logic ("EMPTY" = '$$P_PROFITCTR$$' or "PRCTR" = '$$P_PROFITCTR$$')
When I run the view I see the following behaviour in HANA Studio and Analysis for Excel
Before building the hierarchy I could run the view with or without the Input Parameter
After building the hierarchy I can run the view with the Input Parameter filled, but it fails when the Input Parameter is not filled.
Error message is "error: search table error: [2426] missing placeholder; missing value for mandatory parameter P_PROFITCTR"
P_PROFITCTR is not a mandatory parameter, but the selection for the hierarchy view thinks it should be. I don't find any notes around this issue, so I don't think it's version related, however the version I have used for this test is 1.00.70.
It's a shame we can't currently build the hierarchy as the parent child relationship is provided in HANA Live view NewGLFinancialStatementQuery.
Thanks,
Ken

Hi Ken,
We have been facing similar issue. We have even tried to set default value and as optional parameter. View still fails to create hierarchy (we are not using HANA live). As mentioned on page 97 of HANA modelling guide input parameter is mandatory from engine point of view. Hierarchy is generated as column view during the initial activation of calculation view and therefore expect a value by caller.
This seems to be a product error. Some one from HANA development team should explain this issue in detail. I would expect someone like Thomas Jung reply to us.
At the moment, we cant use input parameter for date prompt which gives us calendar popup feature for date selection. Hierarchies just don't work with input parameter. We are missing something.
Regards
Angad

How to make 'always open in ... view' check box actually work?

What I need is a "Make 'Always open in ... view' check box work" check box.
Specifically:
I double click on my hard drive icon to open its window. I press command 3 to make it display in column view. I press command J and check "Always open in column view" and check the further check box, "Browse in column view". Then later on having viewed various windows I double click on the hard drive icon and it opens in some other view than column view. So, how to make the check box do what it actually says it will do?
Thanks.
edit: In fact in Panther, and probably other older OS X's, all folders would generally remember (I think) how it was last viewed and use that again. How to make that happen? Thanks.

Hi,
For Question #1,

Kate always open files in a new window after kde upgrade

kate always open files in a new window, instead of the existing window as a new document after kde upgrade to 3.5. someone else have the same experience and have a solution for that ?
cheers,
notz

The problem is solved!
Apparently the Content Disposition: Attachment in the BLOB Download Format Mask does the trick.
For some reason I have to logout and login again in the application to see the change.
I tried changing the Content Disposition to Inline and then back to Attachment, and the file keeps opening in the same window unless I start a new session.
Is there any explanation why it is working that way?
Thanks!

I cannot open files - they come up with an error opening this file - access denied. Help!

All my adobe files are now the same - they will not open at all - access denied with no reason other than an error! Help!

Hi - Strangely enough the files opened the very next time I tried! It
must be my fickle computer! My Adobe is quite new so I do not think it is
outdated.
Thanks for the reply anyway - I will plough on.

"Always Open In..." View Options for Root Level of a Disk Image File

I ran into a problem/bug tonight that I can't find listed anywhere and was wondering if anyone else has encountered it. I am using Snow Leopard (now 10.6.1), upgraded from the last revision of Leopard.
I create DVD-R sized disk images with Disk Utility (using "Mac OS Extended" only w/o Journaling) for saving downloaded files. Because of the number of files on this disk, I create single-letter folders (for alphabetical filing) and set up these disk images to "Always Open In List View". For the individual folders, I can set these to "Always Open In List View" without a problem. However, for the "root level" of these disk images, I can only access "Always Open In Icon View" no matter which view option is selected.
For previously created disk images that were already set to "Always Open In List View", these show the previously set "List View" at the disk image "root level" as expected. But if I uncheck the box, it immediately goes to "Always Open In Icon View". And like before, no matter which view option is selected, I can never get back to "Always Open In List View". Note also that I can set this option as expected for "root levels" of real disks - this only seems to be a problem with the disk image files.
I had no problems at all with this under Tiger or Leopard. I've only run into this now under Snow Leopard. The upgrade tonight to 10.6.1 hasn't seem to affect this problem.
So should I be doing something differently now to get this option to reappear, a possible conflict with something on my computer or is this a bug with Snow Leopard? Can anyone else duplicate this issue?

Additional info, in case anyone is running into this issue...
If I do the following with the "root level" of the disk image, I can set the "Always Open in List View" option.
1. Open the "root level" view of the disk image - for me, it always opens in icon view. Then, select "Show View Options" from the View menu.
2. Check the "Always Open in Icon View" box. While leaving this dialog open, select "as List" from the View menu.
3. Uncheck the "Always Open in Icon View" box. It will instantly turn into "Always Open In List View". Recheck this box immediately, then close dialog. This will make the setting stick.
I've been able to repeat this situation several times. I might be wrong, but it sure acts like a small bug to me. Hope this helps anyone else who might have encountered this issue.

I set firefox to open a filetype (.SGF) w/ a program but it doesn't, so I set it to save/ask and neither option works, it always opens file link in a new tab.

I've gone into the Options and set the .SGF file to open with Smartgo. It refuses to do that. Clicking on a link to a .SGF file simply opens the file as text in a new tab.
Since this didn't work, I tried to set firefox to download it instead, because then I can use the window's filetype associations to open it. It won't download the file unless I actually right-click and save-as on the link.
This is tedious when viewing lots of these files. I even set it to Ask me after I saw the the Download option didn't work. It doesn't Ask me. What is going on here?
Also I am using firefox 23
EDIT: It seems to be website specific. Some websites will allow me the option to open it in Smartgo, others will just open it in a tab as text. What is causing this discrepancy and can it be surmounted through browser settings?
An example website to showcase the issue is:
http://igokisen.web.fc2.com/wr/lg.html
clicking on any of these links will not download, open, or ask about what you want to do with the file.

That happens if the server sends the file as text/plain.
You can see this if you open "Tools > Page Info > General": Content-Type: text/plain
Files send this way will always open in a tab.

Open file in Photoshop CS4 with PDF open options

Hi, I need to open Illustrator file in Photoshop with PDF open options and set the crop page options to media box. I am not sure how to do it. Here what I have that doesn't work:
*open file "SPACE:Marketing:webTemplatesCreation:working:die_front.ai" with PDF open options media box crop page*
Thank you for your help.
Yulia

Open options are a list… So you supply like so…
open theFile as PDF with options ¬
{class:PDF open options, bits per channel:eight, constrain proportions:true, crop page:media box, mode:CMYK, page:i, resolution:300, suppress warnings:true, use antialias:true, use page number:true}
Where 'theFile' is an alias of your PDF file and 'i' is your page to open (if in a loop) else use an integer…

Always open files in code view (with option to switch back to design/split)
