CSS Editor in Eclipse hijacked/disabled

Flex sets itself as the default CSS editor in Eclipse, whihc
is fine.. except that I prefer the WST CSS editor that is installed
with the WST toolkit that you can get from Eclipse.org.
So.. going to "Preferences>General>Editors>File
Associations" I can set the default CSS editor back to the WST CSS
editor, and even delete the Flex CSS editor - but doing that just
gives me "plain text" css files (black font, no code completion,
Outline View etc).
But - if I go into "Help>Manage Configuration" and DISABLE
Flex - I get my CSS editor back!
SO - does anyone know how I can have Flex ENABELD *and* have
my referred CSS editor..?
Cheers,
Sean

I don't know if this is the problem, but Eclipse remembers
the last
editor used to open a file. So, if you have a file called
foo.css and
open it with the Flex CSS editor, that file will open with
the Flex CSS
editor the next time you open it even if you have changed the
file
association for .css files. But files that you haven't opened
before
should open with the editor specified by the fila
associations.
Here's something to try: Right-click on your CSS file and
choose the WST
editor from the "Open With" submenu. That file should then
open with the
WST editor on subsequent openings.

Stand alone CSS editor for WDA

im at a client who doesnt have a portal.
So there is no access to the portal theme editor.
When using WDA direct to a NW 7.11 , the customer would like to brand the output.
A few years back I recall some stand alone theme editor.
Eclipse add on ? May have been an SAP only internal tool. ?
Is there a customer available version ?
How best to go about CSS editing for WDA ?

Did you first search SDN before posting your thread? This is a very common question and yes there is a standalone theme editor. In fact one of the sticky threads in the forum discusses it.

CSS editor code hinting problem

I have installed ColdFusion Builder (trial version) togeter with Flash Builder, and I experience that code hinting in the CSS editor does not work. If I edit the CSS file, the changes is not updated when I change to browser view. (It works when I usen an external browser). I have tried to install CFB onto a existing Flash Builder standalone, and also tried to Install Flash Builder and CFB onto an Eclipse Helios installation. The CSS editor does not work in any case.
Somebode have a solution to this problem? I have been in contact with another person that have the same problem. He have solved it temporarily by installing Flash Builder and CFB in two seperate stand alone intsallations.

Hi Stefan,
Thanks a lot for your help!
It works also for me....strange as I didn't find the way to chnage it back to the old way. Probable I have to get use to the new way, however space was more convinient than tab.
Best regards,
Peter

Would love to see the slider and breaks features added to Muse along with the CSS editor?

It does already do this... unless you use manual updating. Under auto updating, tracks played on your iPod should up the count in iTunes on your next sync.

Associating external editor in Eclipse for OSX

How do I associate an external editor to eclipse?
With Windows and Linx I can do this with Preferences->General->Editors->File Associaion. I then click the file type (in this case *.doc), and browse to the application (either OpenOffice or MS Word) and select the app that I want. Then whenever I select a file of that type inside of eclipse, it opens the file in the associated editor.
But when do the same thing in OSX, the program never starts.
There must be some way to call OpenOffice or MS Word from inside eclipse.
Does anybody know how to do this in OSX?
Thank you for you help

This sounds like a bug. We probably don't test with a prompt
containing a carriage return. You can file this bug using

Need a CSS Editor?

Hi folks
I saw this alert today and decided to share. I know there are many of us that for whatever reason prefer third party tools. One of the tools I particularly find I cannot live without is SnagIt.
Today, a web site called Bits Du Jour is offering Top Style (a CSS editor) for half price. Normally it's $79 but today it's $39.

[ER] CSS editor, when used in skin context, shouldn't be so warning happy

Hello,
I think the CSS editor should be able to detect that it's used as a skin (by scanning trinidad-skins.xml) and adjust its validation rules accordingly. Currently, most basic skins make JDeveloper whinne a lot, mostly because of an expected identifier error from the :: syntax.
Thanks,
~ Simon

+1 from me too
The good news is that the build I am bug hunting tonight contains a new feature, which is syntax help and code completion for the CSS editor that includes the skin selectors of ADF Faces RC and Trinidad (as they are the same (at least almost))
However, I am not sure this feature will make it into TP4, so be prepared that you have to live with that until we go production ;-)
thanks

Editor and Organizer integration - disable?

I have had Photoshop Elements for some time as it was part of a bundle I purchased with Premiere Elements. Until recently, I had been using Paintshop Pro for photo editing and PE only for the organizer.
Since I am several version behind on all three, I decided to see if I could get used to PE for the editing as I am not thrilled with the direction Corel has taken with PP. It all seems to work fine with one exception. Mostly I use the editor to resize, touch up, crop, etc. photos for my family web site. The way I have always done this in the past is to drag the photos from the organizer to a working directory (thus creating a copy) and edit the copy. Once my site is updated, I delete the files from the working directory. It appears that any photo I edit in this fashion using PE gets added to the Organizer and then becomes a 'broken' thumbnail once I delete the temporary copy from the working directory. Is there an option to disable the automatic add of any edited photo to the organizer? Note that I never had this problem when I used PP to edit the copies. (By the way, I directly edit the copies, I do not put them in Organizer and then launch the editor from there. I open the copy directly.)
Any help appreciated.

Word of warning: NEVER count on your host as your only source of backups. I bet in their terms of service somewhere it states that you are responsible for your own backups (even if the host does regular backups.)
FYI: If you use Save for Web Organizer makes a copy of the file and does not include it in Organizer.
If you put much work into the edited versions they are worth saving. Why go back and have to remove red eye, crop, adjust color, etc. every time you want to use a photo? I don't reduce file size until after my edits are done so it is worth it to save them. I don't always bother saving the layers though.
You might want to think about saving your website files to disc before deleting them from your hard drive. Cds are cheap for a bit of extra insurance.

Css editor bug in cs6

This is a bug within the application code
1. double click on a css tag to bring up the editor window
2. in dreamweaver cs5 you could double click in a field to edit the content, such as margins or padding
3. In CS6, you have to first click in the field, it highlights with an outline, then you can double click to highlight the contents
This adds another un-necessary click to the workflow, an annoying bug when editing code all day
Has anyone else noticed this?
I edit the css files directly some of the time but sometimes it's nice to use the editor. I've files a bug report so hopefully this will be solved.
p.s. what a shame too that adobe STILL have old old old icons in Dreamweaver cs6 such as the bubble shapes and also no dark ui!

Hi there, yes same here, that all works off me too.
It's when the editor is open... The actual fields such as font size, etc or in another section such as padding, margin etc where you enter the amount.
So for example if you have 50 top margin and 20 right and want to use the editor to change 50 to 70 you have to click in the field where 70 is then double click to select the 70.
Normally in every app or even on the Internet you can simply double click to select. You dont need to click then double click. Try it, you'll see what I mean
Of course, I do like you much of the time but then there are times when I'll use the editor.

Html + css editor

I am a java programmer who was told to design a jsp page using html + css.
i dont know css. is there a free WYSIWYG editor out there which takes into an account your css files and lets you use it somehow to make what you need.
keep in mind that when i look at the css style sheet i cant "imagine" how any of the stuffs in there would looks, and i dont know which divs must be inside other divs.

As long as you are able to get away with writing "dirty code" it isn't too much of a pain. When I am knocking a random page up I use 2 methods
1) Set the style for a tag using clas="..."
2) Set the style by adding the tag in your css
The first option allows you to tightly control what style gets applied where. The second option is for global setting of styles. By putting a <style> tag in your header you will find you are very quickly able to change and test your style changes. I am currently, at home, learning php with MySql served from apache. All I have to do is edit my css file in notepad, hit F5 on my browser and voil�, I can see the changes. I can develop my style sheets very quickly with this method. I prefer not to use graphic tools because of all the unnecessary tags they create.

Visual Portlet/Portal editor in Eclipse 3.5

Hi, the company I work for uses Weblogic Portal 10.2, which comes with Workspace 1.1... Workspace 1.1 is based on Eclipse 3.2, which is rather old, so I installed Eclipse 3.5 Galileo on a different place...
However, Eclipse 3.5 alone does not support Portal/portlet visual editing as Workspace 1.1 does (obviously).
My question is: Is there a way I can get the visual editor for Portals/Portlets working under Eclipse 3.5?
(...and other Portal features)
I downloaded the Oracle Enterprise Pack (+PLUGIN+ for Eclipse), but it does not come with Portal/Portlet editing support.
I've googled all around, but most answers end up with installing the Oracle Enterprise Pack. However, that doesn't work for me, because it does not include the .portal/.portlet visual editors, Portal project creation, etc.
Please help! I don't want to have 2 IDEs installed for the same purpose :(
Thank you in advance.
