Code navigator stuck on

Hi all,
I hope you can help. I'm on a Mac using CS5. Somehow my code navigator (the little popup that shows html, css, etc) thinks it's always on and I can't turn it off or get it back to normal funtion. Every time I click in a page I am editing a warning message comes up that says "There is no destination for Code Navigator to show for the selection". In code view, the code navigator button can not be selected. In Live Code view very time I click in the page, Code Navigator opens.
How can I reset Code Navigator back to it's original function?
Thanks in advance for your help

Fixed guys!! Quick browse over to the specific support section of Adobe.com for Dreamweaver and a highlighted 'important' update is available 'especially applying to Mac OS X Users'. I've downloaded this, rebooted and there we have it!! All sorted, with no Code navigator stuck!! Based on previous reports in this thread though I'm just wondering how long it will last!
If it does return back to this problem I'll definitely try out your method Piet, it seems to make sense actually as to why maybe it started in the first place - as as well as downloading a new update for OS X, I was fiddling about strangely enough with my accessibility settings (Universal Access) the other day to check VoiceOver on the Mac could correctly read my webpages in order to cater for the elderly! Maybe I accidentally changed a setting or triggered an awaiting bug?
Thanks again,
I'll report back if things go wrong again - but anyone having the same issue head on over to the support page http://www.adobe.com/support/dreamweaver/, and click the relevant link - you can't miss it.

  • Code Navigator "Stuck"

    When I open a document in Dreamweaver CS4,
    everything is pre-selected, as though the Code Navigator
    were stuck on the outermost div. This just started happening
    yesterday; before then everything was fine. I tried uninstalling
    and reinstalling to no avail.
    Ideas, please.
    My apologies if this has been addressed before: searching the
    forums throws an error message.

    Okay, actually, this is happening to just one document on one
    site, and so perhaps there's something in the code which I'm just
    not seeing, though I still don't understand what could be doing
    this. Code follows:

  • Problem with PHP, CSS & Code Navigator in CS4

    Hi,
    I've got al little problem with code navigator. To show the problem, I created this 3 files:
    test1.html
    The CSS-Definition is defined static, with simple HTML.
    <html>
    <head>
         <style type="text/css">
              @import "test.css";
         </style>
    </head>
    <body>
          <p>Hello World</p>
    </body>
    </html>
    test2.php
    The CSS-Definition is defined dynamic, with PHP-Code.
    <html>
    <head>
         <style type="text/css">
              <? echo "@import \"test.css\";\n"; ?>
         </style>
    </head>
    <body>
          <p>Hello World</p>
    </body>
    </html>   
    test.css
    The CSS-File which is imported in test1.html and test2.php
    p {
         font-size:20px;
    The Problem in Dreamweaver CS4
    When opening the test.html - File in Dreamweaver CS4, I can easily see the CSS-Definition of the <p>-Tag in Code Navigator. To edit these definition I can simple open the test.css by clicking on the definition in Code navigator. For a complex webpage this is a greate feature. Sadly, this does not work, when I open the test2.php. Although when going to Live View and selecting the <p>-Tag I can see the CSS-Definition and the file in which it is defined in Code Navigator. But by clicking on the definition the test.css DOES NOT OPEN!
    Has anybody a solution? Because many of our projects have dynamic CSS-Definitions, it would be a shame, if this would not work.
    Tanks for help! :-)

    I've done some testing, which might point you in the direction of an interim solution.
    This is the code for related_files.php:
    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
    <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
    <head>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
    <title>Related files test</title>
    <?php include('include.css'); ?>
    </head>
    <body>
    <p>This is a paragraph.</p>
    </body>
    </html>
    This is the code for include.css:
    <style type="text/css">
    p {
         font-family:"Trebuchet MS", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
         color:#F00;
    </style>
    Note that the include file contains the opening and closing style tags.
    By including your styles like this in a PHP include file, Dreamweaver applies the CSS in Design view (you don't need to turn on Live View). Holding down the Alt key while clicking in Design view brings up the Code Navigator with all the details of the CSS. The one missing link in the chain is that clicking the style selector in the Code Navigator does not open the CSS file. However...
    The file that contains the CSS is listed in the Related Files toolbar, so you can edit it in Split view, and see the results in Design view in exactly the same way as with an HTML page and ordinary style sheet.
    As I say, not the full solution that you wanted, but it might be something worth experimenting with.

  • Code Navigator Issue.

    Hi - I have just installed DW and pasted some web page source code into the main window. The problem is whenever I click any where in the code window I get the code navigator popping up. I tried disabling it as mentioned in the help topic by clicking the check box but nothing works. The only way I can get rid of it is by pressing the 'Esc' Key, which is very annoying as it appears every time I click the cursor somewhere blocking my whole view. Is it necessary to restart your MAC after installing Adobe Collection, because I went onto install other third party apps, could that be the reason why this is happening. When I called technical support they advised me that it was not neccessary and have since spent a number of days installing the rest of my apps. Could someone please advise me - thanks, Adam

    I haven't come across this problem. However, it sounds as though the preference isn't being saved. You can edit the preferences manually. Close Dreamweaver, and open /Users/your_username/Library/Preferences/Adobe Dreamweaver CS5 Prefs in a text editor.
    Locate the following line in the [GENERAL PREFERENCES] section:
    show code navigator popup=TRUE
    Change it to this:
    show code navigator popup=FALSE
    Save the file. The next time you start Dreamweaver, the Code Navigator should remain hidden.

  • How to hide code navigator icon in code view? DW CS5

    Hey all,
    Is there an easy way to turn the code navigator icon off in code view?  It likes to pop up at the most inconvenient times and hides parts of my code from me.  Do I have to disable 'all' tool tips?  Please help.  Thanks.

    I turn it off until I need it.

  • CS5.5 Split screen/code navigator crash with mac OS 10.10.1

    I am using CS5.5 on my macbook pro.  Since I've installed 10.10.1, when I try to open code navigator or change to split screen, I get the spinning wheel and need to force quit DW.  Is anyone else having this problem?   Is there a fix for this?  It worked great before OS10.10....thanx in advance.

    More information:
    I just noticed that I am only having this problem on one of my pages (index.html) in only one of my sites.  All other pages of this site have no problem when switching to split view.  Obviously, there is a code problem only on that page.  Still need help.

  • Code Navigator problems (CS6 on a Mac)

    When I click on an element (e.g. a paragraph of text), the Code Navigator opens a window displaying a list of selectors that apply to the element that I'm focussing on.
    When I then hover over one of the selectors, it should then show a list of the properties that apply to that selector (colour, font, margin etc). The hover doesn't work – simply nothing happens.
    Please can someone explain why this might be happening (or rather not happening!). I've checked the Preferences but couldn't see anything that I might have inadvertantly turned off. It's really frustrating!
    Thanks and best wishes

  • Why is Code Navigator disabled (and undocumented)?

    Hi all.
    I was editing some PHP that had a lot of functions in it.  I went to activate Code Navigator, but it was disabled in the View menu.  Anyone know why?
    I searched the help and got zero results for "code navigator", which is pretty lame.
    Thanks for any insight.

    Thank you.  It does help explain what Code Navigator does do.  I notice that's from the CS4 documentation.  Hopefully the CS5 doc will be complete by the time CS6 comes out.
    So from this I gather that there's no way to see a list of functions in the current file and jump between them.  That's not an acceptable omission for a development tool.
    Looks like it's back to Coda or Espresso.

  • HTML5 and Code Navigator

    Is it correct that, with HTML5 documents, the Code Navigator doesn't show the information inside the HTML5 elements like section, aside, nav etc? Also the Tag Selector doesn't show these tags. I do have the HTML5 pack installed.

    Just concluded that I have to reinstall my CS5 because Dreamweaver seems too instable. I just went back to CS4 and there the tags are visible in Tag Selector and in Code Navigator. Without the HTML5 plugin.

  • Irritating Code Navigator

    How do change the postition of the code navigator so that it does not cover up the tag that I am looking at or editing. I don't want to turn it off I only want it to popup close to the tag but not on top of it.

    Hi Jim,
    if I understand your question correctly: you want to move(?) the code-navi-panel? Then you should first click into the panel, after that use the ALT-key  + the left mouse click, after that you can drag/click it to a place, where it no longer disturbes your work. (Meens you click at the place you want to have it)
    If my answer is completely wrong, repeat it please in a simply manner.Hans-G.

  • Code Navigator hover properties?

    This does not work in DW CS4 on my Mac: "When you hover over

    properties in the rule". Found at:
    "help.adobe.com/en_US/Dreamweaver/10.0_Using/WS49D443C1-D15C-4e77-AA5B-F25569D0471D.html"
    Does anyone know how to get the hover effect to work so that
    the properties pop up as advertised?
    Thx

    Der Kauf,
    It should have been on by default, but maybe you disabled it.
    Maybe it's
    because you're on a page that does not have any CSS styles --
    it doesn't
    seem to pop up automatically when that's the case.
    Anyway, use Alt+Click to force the Code Navigator to pop up.
    Once it's
    up, there's a checkbox where you can un-disable it.
    HTH,

  • Code Navigator makes Dreamweaver CS4 quit, every time.

    Every time I select the Code Navigator, Dreamweaver CS4 freezes for about 4 seconds, then quits unexpectedly. I've tried reinstalling my operating system (Mac OS X) as well as the program. It also happens on a brand new user. Any see this before? I can't find on any of the forums, or in google. Thanks!

    If Dreamweaver is behaving in an odd way, it frequently means you have a corrupt personal configuration folder. Close Dreamweaver, locate the personal configuration folder, and rename it. When you restart Dreamweaver, it should create a new configuration folder with all the program defaults. For details of how to find the configuration folder, see this page in the Dreamweaver FAQ.
    You may want to look at some of the other troubleshooting options as well.
