Design View Implementation

Hi all,
Although I'm a beginner of Java I've to develop an AJAX IDE in Java as graduation project. In the IDE I plan to have a "Design View", one like Netbeans have but idk where to start. How can I do this? Anyone with suggestions or experiences?
Thanks in advance...

Well...what should it do exactly? If iunderstand
right, you probably need to make a visual
editor
in
Swing, so that you can drag elements intoposition.
Then you need to have some conversion to put
the
changed information back into the JavaScriptcode.
It's seems like a huge amount of work to me...Yes, you're right. Delphi also has an example ofit.
For example, you drag a button object in someplace
on canvas. Then you can change button propertieslike
color, text on it, etc.
Any suggestions? How can I do this?it's not an easy question to answer, like "how doI
build a house?". I've pointed you at what I think
could help. you certainly want to be using somesort
of framework for this, like eclipse, otherwisemost
of your time will be spent writing mundane,
non-your-problem-domain code that won't earn youany
marks. my last job, we had a project building a
visual software process editor, and I'm prettysure
they used EMF, like I suggested above. trying todo
all the drag 'n' drop stuff yourself is a major
headache. a lot more complex than you think it willbe
I can use instant tools as well. No problem with
that. Let me ask my question that way then: What are
the tools that can be useful for such a task?they're still here. like they were all the other times

    Hi Marcelo,
       Yes, there are some requirements for certificates in Expressway.
    Expressway Core (Exp-C)
    - Can be signed by either External or Internal CA
    - Better to use a cluster name even if you start with 1 peer in Exp-C cluster. In the future, if more peers are added, changes would be minimal.
    - Better to use FQDN of cluster as CN of certificate, this way the traversal zone configuration on Expressway-E won't require any change even if new peers are added to Exp-C cluster.
    - If CUCM is mixed mode, include security profile names (in FQDN format) as Subject Alternate Names
    - The Chat Node Aliases that are configured on the IM and Presence servers. They will be required only for Unified Communications XMPP federation deployments that intend to use both TLS and group chat. (Note that Unified Communications XMPP federation will be supported in a future Expressway release). The Expressway-C automatically includes the chat node aliases in the CSR, providing it has discovered a set of IM&P servers.
    - For TLS b/w CUCM, IM-P & Exp-C
      + If using self-signed certificates on CUCM, IM/P. Load Cisco Tomcat, cup, cup-xmpp certificates from IM-P on Exp-C. Load callmanager, Cisco Tomcat certificates from CUCM on Exp-C.
      + If using Internal CA signed certificates on CUCM, IM/P. Load Root CA certificates on Exp-C.
      + Load CA certificate under tomcat-trust, cup-trust, cup-xmpp-trust on IM-P.
      + Load CA certificate under tomcat-trust, callmanager-trust on CUCM.
    Expressway Edge (Exp-E)
    - Signed by External CA
    - Configured Unified Communications domain as Subject Alternate Name
    - If using a cluster, select FQDN of this peer as CN and FQDN of Cluster + this peer as Subject Alternate Name.
    - If XMPP federation is being deployed, enter the same Chat Node Aliases as entered in Exp-C.
    For more details, please refer to the Certificate Creation Guide for Cisco Expressway x8.1.1

  • Inserting tabbed navigation code makes my web page not display in design view..

    Hi everyone..
    I am on Dreamweaver 8 for MAC, and was working on a couple of web pages..these pages included divs and tables. But when I tried inserting a tabbed navigation I found at:
    http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex17/tabcontent.htm
    In a nutshell, it asked me for step 1 to:
    Step 1: Insert the        below CSS and script into the HEAD section of your page:
    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="tabcontent.css" />
    <script type="text/javascript" src="tabcontent.js">
    * Tab Content script v2.2- © Dynamic Drive DHTML code library (www.dynamicdrive.com)
    * This notice MUST stay intact for legal use
    * Visit Dynamic Drive at http://www.dynamicdrive.com/ for full source code
    </script>
    The next step was this:
    Step 2: Finally, simply add the below      HTML to where you wish the Tab Content to appear on the page:
    <h3>Demo #1- Basic implementation</h3>
    <ul id="countrytabs" class="shadetabs">
    <li><a href="#" rel="country1" class="selected">Tab 1</a></li>
    <li><a href="#" rel="country2">Tab 2</a></li>
    <li><a href="#" rel="country3">Tab 3</a></li>
    <li><a href="#" rel="country4">Tab 4</a></li>
    <li><a href="http://www.dynamicdrive.com">Dynamic Drive</a></li>
    </ul>
    <div style="border:1px solid gray; width:450px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 10px">
    <div id="country1" class="tabcontent">
    Tab content 1 here<br />Tab content 1 here<br />
    </div>
    <div id="country2" class="tabcontent">
    Tab content 2 here<br />Tab content 2 here<br />
    </div>
    <div id="country3" class="tabcontent">
    Tab content 3 here<br />Tab content 3 here<br />
    </div>
    <div id="country4" class="tabcontent">
    Tab content 4 here<br />Tab content 4 here<br />
    </div>
    </div>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    var countries=new ddtabcontent("countrytabs")
    countries.setpersist(true)
    countries.setselectedClassTarget("link") //"link" or "linkparent"
    countries.init()
    </script>
    <p><a href="javascript:countries.cycleit('prev')" style="margin-right: 25px; text-decoration:none">Back</a> <a href="javascript: countries.expandit(3)">Click here to select last tab</a> <a href="javascript:countries.cycleit('next')" style="margin-left: 25px; text-decoration:none">Forward</a></p>
    <hr />
    Well, I did all the steps required, but when I put this inside a div I had inside a table, all of a sudden I couldnt see anything in my design view, only two tables that arent even the same size..When I take out all this code, I get back my regular page..Can I see this tabbed navigation in my design view? Unfortunately, I dont have the spry widgets since I am on Dreamweaver 8..If I preview it in both Safari and Firefox (on Mac Firefox/3.0.8) (Safari 3.2.1) I can see everything fine, including the tabbed navigation..But designing in code isnt really helpful because I want to see what it looks like in design view, in case we change things-its just easier for me to work on..So I assume there is something in this code that is making my design view show nothing..
    Update:I tried taking out the code again, but this time, I couldnt see anything again, even without this code..
    I know that I can go to validation website, and I got a lot of errors-but all the pages I have that are in the same style have those same errors too—and they display fine..its only when I insert this specific piece of code that everything goes haywire..Is it even possible to view tabbed navigations (like the one in the above link) inside of Dreamweaver Design View?
    Any help would be appreciated..

    DW8 doesn't render any dynamic content, so I'd say it's a no go. You'll just have to live with that limitation or upgrade to CS4...

  • Code view not in synch with Design view (Dreamweaver CS3)

    Hello All,
    On my main work PC, I am running Dreamweaver CS3. When I am
    working in split view (with both Design and Code view visible) when
    I click on an element (say, a button) in Design view, the code view
    automatically shows me the code for the element that I am working
    on. That way, if I need to manually edit the code, I can click on
    the Code view and make the appropriate changes.
    On my laptop I am also running Dreamweaver CS3 However, when
    I am working in split view and I click on a element in Design view,
    my code view does NOT update itself and continues to show the last
    bit of code I was working on in Code view. While this could come in
    handy at times where i want design view and code view to show me
    two different things, I mostly would like code view to update
    automatically. Currently the only way I can get code view to update
    on my laptop is to hit the "refresh design view (F5)" button. Is
    there a way to do this automatically? Is this an option in
    Dreamweaver preferences because I don't see it anywhere.
    Thanks so much for your help.

  • BUG: JSP disappears from design view with MyFaces / Tomahawk

    Hi,
    When I try to create a JSF JSP in design view (as opposed to code view) using MyFaces and Tomahawk 1.1.3, the design view will blank and display "Type, paste or drag and drop content onto this blank....". This usually happens after I've dragged half a dozen JSF outputlabels and inputtext boxes. The code still exists in code view, and will even compile and deploy ok, it's just the design view that stops working. The design view usually blanks while I'm switching between the code tabs at the top of the screen, although I'm fairly sure it blanked as I dropped a textbox onto the form once.
    I've restarted JDev, tried to create a second page, clicked refresh etc but I can't get it back. This has happened starting from scratch 3 times now.
    I've switched back to the builtin reference implementation JSF (and no Tomahawk), and JDeveloper works fine, so it seems to be a problem using MyFaces. I've added MyFaces and Tomahawk via Manage Libraries.
    This Oracle article - http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/101/howtos/myfaces/index.html
    states that the RI version can't be swapped out in JDev Developer Preview version but I understand that's not true now?
    I'm using :-
    JDeveloper SU4
    java 1.5
    Windows XP SP1
    Thanks for any help.

    I found the answer. I went to View, Style Rendering and clicked several of the boxes  Display Media was one.

  • BUG: Extending JDialog error in design view

    I extended JDialog to create a custom Dialog, then when I extend the CustomDialog to create a Dialog in Jdeveloper Design mode it actualy creates the popup dialog instead of the design mode for it (ie it actually renders the final popup as a seperate popup, which would be a really cool feature because you can actually use the popup to test it, but it means you can't edit it with the gui designer)
    OS - Suse 9.3
    Oracle IDE - 10.1.3.3412
    Java Platform - 1.5.0_06
    Here is some sample code:
    package org.cms.custom.swing;
    import javax.swing.JDialog;
    public class CustomDialog extends JDialog
    public CustomDialog()
    package org.cms.screen;
    import org.cms.custom.swing.CustomDialog;
    public class TestDialog extends CustomDialog
    public TestDialog()
    So you go to design mode for TestDialog and it pops up the dialog.........(you may need to build first).....

    The above code does reproduce the error. I reduced it to that code to make sure that it wasn't any of my code doing it and when I made the 2 classes above and go to design mode for the second one it pops up the dialog. You can cut and paste the code as is. The implementation is irrelevant, its Inheritance of a class that extends JDialog that is causing the problem.
    You need to compile the classes, close them, then reopen the second one in design view for the popup to happen.

  • Text from Design view is not visible on View

    I converted a project from RoboHelp 9 to 11, and discovered that several of my topics were changed.  Most of the changes were minor, e.g. spacing, bold type, bullets, etc., but I'm still having to go through each page, to make corrections.  Oftentimes, the "problems" don't show up until I View the topic, but up to this point I've been able to fix them.  However, one topic looks fine in Design view, but when I open it in View, almost all of the text is gone.  I've tried retyping portions, to see if it reappeared, but not all of it does.  Do you have any idea what is happening and how I fix it?

    LOL, you should probably check out my dear friend Peter Grainge's site
    RoboHelp Tour
    Here's the deal. In times past, the eHelp corporation had RoboHelp. And they created RoboHelp HTML long before HTML really was wildly popular. In those times it was necessary to implement some rather arcane workarounds to allow editing and a WYSIWYG environment.
    Time moves forward and Adobe are now the owners of the venerable RoboHelp. They modified the editor to be more standards compliant. And as you might imagine, that has the real possibility of somewhat munging things. Not that RoboHelp is munging code, but browsers are now a bit more persnickety about things. For example, that transparent thing was likely there in earlier browser versions and was ignored. So it's a combination of things.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Site no longer previewing in design view

    Hello,
    The site I need help with is a classic asp site. I am using Dreamweaver CS5.5 and am working in Windows 7 Professional.
    For over a year I have been opening files directly from two separate servers (one is testing, the other is live) and the files previewed fine in design view. One day design view stopped working for asp files on both servers and I do not know what caused this. HTML files still preview fine.
    On the live server, design view is not recognizing the included header, any of the css, or the images when I open .asp files. When I paste the include into the main document I can get the css to work by removing the initial '/' character from the path leading me to believe this is a pathing issue. I do not want to change my pathing in the files as the site is rendering properly in the browser and there is not a inital '/' character in the includes original path to remove anyway.
    When I open a .asp file from the test sever, the included file is showing in design view but again I have to change the pathing to the css in order for it to render properly in design view. It is rendering properly in the browser.
    The loss of design view is making my styleing very challenging. I think I need to tell dreamweaver where the root of the testing and live server are. I'm not sure is this is the solution and if it is I am not sure how to implement it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
    Paul

    Thanks Nancy...   Here is what I found. Maybe you (or someone could shed some light on this for me).
    Here is what is placed in all of my documents: 
    <!--#include virtual="/includes/topNav/topNav_housing.asp"----------->
    The home page that displayed properly in Dreamweaver looked like this:
    <!--#include virtual="/includes/topNav/topNav_home.asp"-->
    Removing all but two of the dashes as the end of the code snippet fixed the problem and the Header started to disply in Design view.   I am not a programmer, and my HTML/CSS knowledge is self taught, but this code has been in place from a previous designer for years.  Does it make a difference?  What could have changed?   I have thousands of these pieces in my site, I guess I need to fix them all.....

  • Design view in Dreamweaver CC (update Oct. 2014)

    Design view in Dreamweaver CC (update Oct. 2014)  shows renders fonts and elements as huge making it impossible to work in that view. In live view it goes down to normal. And is there a way to switch of the blue tag inspector wrapping around the elements in focus? It's driving me nuts!
    What am I doing wrong, or is there a setting I'm unaware of?

    Jon Fritz II wrote:
    I have a sneaking suspicion that the "fix" is going to be the complete removal of Design View and a much more robust implementation of a Live View editor. I don't have anything to back that up, it's just the vibe I get from the direction DW seems to be taking.
    If there is a single web design/editor/developer application that even comes close to the features and power of Dreamweaver, I have yet to find it. And I test everyone I come across. Dw truly is the last great web design powerhouse. One of the main features that makes it so powerful, is its rich WYSIWYG editor for producing and managing large sites with tons of content - otherwise known as the inappropriately named Design View.
    As design surfaces go, apps like Macaw, Webflow, and Reflow nailed it. They're brilliant when it comes to prototyping designs and building & styling structures. Dreamweaver just can't compete with those types of visual workflows. Live View is barely a design surface at all, and its workflows are preposterous. That may change over time. Live View might be useful someday for prototyping designs and building & styling structures, but I would be very surprised if Live View's design surface ever... ever... ever becomes a useful content production and management surface.
    If Adobe allows - or forces - the Dw team to remove Design View, leaving us without a decent WYSIWYG editor, then where does that leave web designers like myself who produce and manage corporate sites with lots of content? - It's a rhetorical question.

  • Design View and overwritten methods in subclasses

    Dear all
    DESIGN VIEW DOESN'T WORK WITH OVERWRITTEN METHODS IN SUBCLASSES
    I am developing a reasonably large applet-based menu using
    JDeveloper. Because much of it varies only in small details, I
    had planned to create a base class to hold all the common
    elements, which would then call an emtpy method from jbinit().
    Each menu applet would then extend this class and overwrite the
    empty method to initialise components specific to their needs.
    This worked fine when implemented in a few test menus and viewed
    in a browser.
    However, problems arise when I try to work with the individual
    sub classes in JDeveloper's Design View - they don't appear!
    This means I will probably have to revert to "cut and paste" to
    create further menus unless anyone can point me in a better
    direction, or show how to get around this. Any help much
    appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Nick,
    I know of a similar situation when trying to use your own
    designed JavaBeans which has the same problem -
    thus I am suggesting the same solution.
    The problem is that JDeveloper IDE uses a ClassPath
    (IDEClassPath).
    Your code ( Project Output Path) is NOT in the IDEClassPath.
    (for good reason).
    So, my suggestion is as follows:
    Exit JDeveloper
    Edit <JDeveloper>\JDeveloper.ini
    Locate: IDEClassPath
    Add ;..\classes
    to the end of the line.
    Run JDeveloper, open your workspace, project.
    Select menu: Project | Properties.
    Switch to 'Paths' tab.
    Change Output root directory to:
    <JDeveloper>\classes
    Press OK
    Rebuild your project.
    Validate you can go into design mode on the base class.
    Validate you can go into design mode on derived classes.
    Please post follow up message (success or failure) so we
    can file a bug if necessary.
    Thanks,
    John.

  • Using objects, design view in NetBeans

    I started using NetBeans a few weeks ago, and I was wondering, if it's possible to visualize an object that you declared manually , in the design view?
    For example, if I manually declare a jTextLabel, Can I see it , in the design view?
    Because I haven't managed to find a way to do it.
    Thanks for your attention.

    I started using NetBeans a few weeks ago, and I was wondering, if it's possible to visualize an object that you declared manually , in the design view?Your terminology is unclear. What does "object" mean in this sentence? The word "object" is not to be used in a blurry context in Java (which is an Object - Oriented programming language).
    For example, if I manually declare a jTextLabel, Can I see it , in the design view?Because of the unclear terminology, your example is unclear too.
    - Do you mean you have implemented a class JTextLabel, and you want to use it in the forms designer? Yes it's possible, you have to right-click on the class and "Add to beans palette", or something along those lines.
    - Do you mean you have added an attribute of type JTextLabel (whatever that is, but maybe you meant JTextField )? Then no, NB will not show it in the forms designer, for the reason Kayaman said (except that in NetBeans, the metadata is stored in a separate +.form+ file, which is generated by the forms designer. Adding your attribute in the Java source does not propagate to the .forms file; and tweaking the .form file manually is something I'd clearly recommend against).
    Note that this is merely a question for NetBeans forums, andsuch questions are generally frowned upon here (myself I don't frown, indeed I find it unfortunate that the NB forums are separate, and I find the NB forums unhelpful in general, but you can't tell until you try them).
    Also note that nothing in your post suggests you read the NetBeans documentation. If you did, please state it, which chapters, and why it doesn't answer your question (the "Add from palette" thing is clearly in the docs).
    Best regards,

  • WAMP5 & Design View

    I've installed WAMP5 on my developing machine, and am using
    Dreamweaver CS3. When I work on pages, they preview in the browser,
    but design view is grayed out, not allowing me to visually see
    anything in Dreamweaver. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    I agree. Any non-trivial .xsl file will have more than 1
    <xsl:template>.

    XML Spy is definitely worth a try:
    http://www.altova.com/products/xmlspy/xml_editor.html
    I remember XML Mind having interesting out of the box support
    for DocBook
    that allows visual editing. But it lacks code editing
    features and it was
    pretty slow for me:
    http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/
    There are many, many other alternatives I never tried.
    Many solutions are available as Eclipse's plugin as well,
    both free and
    commercial. If you like Eclipse or you already use it for
    other purposes,
    that could be a good choice.

  • Can not see two fields in Crystal 2008 Developer explorer/designer view

    I am currently developing crystal 2008 reports against the salesforce.com database using version 12.0.0.683 CR Developer Full version. I am using an updated driver that was provided in July or Aug 08 in order to view self referencing fields. The problem is that when I try and report against one of the tables (lead history) I cannot view two of the fields (New Value and Old Value)? I can see these two field (New Value and Old Value) in the database expert as the last two fields in the actual table, but the two fields are missing when I go into the explorer/designer view. In Salesforce, these two fields can not be filtered on, but I can export all the values in this table using Salesforece Apex data loader.

    Please re-post if this is still an issue to the OnDemand Forum or purchase a case and have a dedicated support engineer work with you directly
