Dreamweaver CS4 Code Coloring not updating

Hi,
Recently, when trying to edit the code coloring in Dreamweaver CS4, it will not update the colors after I hit "ok." Anyone know why this might be? I've tried restarting Dreamweaver, clearing the cache, and even seeing if it would work on new documents but none of that helps. Thanks for any help!
- Matt

Are you sure you're changing colors for you open document ?
I have issue with coloring too, but I thought after all this time CS5 will finally have Save option for exactly this issue. So I don't have to repeat this over and over again.

  • Dreamweaver Help: Code Coloring specific tags

    Hello everyone,
    I would like to set some custom Code Colors on HTML tags in DW to help me in recognizing those tags when I open a page in DW's Code View. I was able to find this BLOG post saying that it this is possible in DW by updating some DW preference files; source: http://blogs.adobe.com/dreamweaver/2009/02/code_coloring_specific_tags.html.. I am a non-technical person so I find it difficult to do the setup. The reason I want this is for me to easily find the text in Code View just by noticing the code color.
    E.g. I want this <span class="specialText"> to have a red code color in DW's Code View
    I hope there's someone who can guide me on how to accomplish this.
    Thanks

    Go to Edit > Preferences > Code Coloring > HTML > Edit Coloring Scheme.
    In DW, <span> tags have the same color scheme as <p> and <h > tags.  I'm not sure  if you can change that.
    As a workaround for quickly finding all span tags of a certain class, use Find (Ctrl+F), Specific Tag, Find All button.  See screenshot:

  • Dreamweaver CS4 Code Letter Spacing Issue

    Hello,
    I am currently running Adobe Dreamweaver CS4 on my Macbook Pro. We use it on a daily basis to keep our corporate website up-to-date. During the past few weeks, we have developed a very odd issue in the DW code editing pane. The letter spacing is completely off, which is odd considering that the font is monospaced. A large space will appear between characters even though no space is actually there. I have included a screenshot below of some new code I recently entered. Notice the space between the form names and the apostrophes. It appears as though there is one space between the name and the apostrophe, however there is none. The code still works fine, but this becomes very frustrating when attempting to enter new code.
    I should also mention that none of my code developed prior to approximately two weeks ago has been effected. Only when I attempt to enter new code is the spacing effected.
    Is this a known issue? Any ideas of what could be going on?
    Any input would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!
    Jon

    Oh, you're welcome!
    I know, so many of these things you don't find with a cursory review of menu-items and preferences. Then when you need them, you might not have noticed them first time through.
    That's one reason I like the Forums: you learn things you didn't know you needed to know...
    I've noticed that system fonts change from system to system, and sometimes you "lose" a font when you go to a new computer.
    Best,

  • CS4 Code Hinting Not Automatically Showing...

    It says in the new features page that it has support for code
    hinting for libraries such as jQuery.
    Well how come it doesn't come up automatically when you type?
    I have code hints enabled! I have to press Ctr+Spacebar for them to
    come up!
    Thanks.

    gnzicc wrote:
    > It comes up automatically for Spry doesn't it?
    Yes, because the code hints for Spry are hard-coded into
    Dreamweaver.
    The code hints for custom functions and objects, including
    jQuery, YUI,
    and other frameworks, are not hard-coded. They're generated
    by code
    introspection. That's why you need to press Ctrl+Space.
    Full marks for doing a little research in Google, but didn't
    you notice
    that one of the top items was a tutorial on the Adobe site
    about
    JavaScript code hints?
    http://www.adobe.com/designcenter/dreamweaver/articles/lrvid4048_dw.html
    As you'll see from that tutorial, code hints come up after
    you type a
    period following the name of a variable that contains a
    JavaScript
    object. However, in my experience, you don't get the full
    range of hints
    for jQuery. I'm pretty sure that's because of the way that
    jQuery is
    contstucted.
    Another Google search would also reveal the following
    extension for
    jQuery code hints:
    http://www.xtnd.us/dreamweaver/jquery
    I haven't used it, so can't comment on the quality or
    reliability of the
    extension.

  • Dreamweaver CS4 Code View

    Please excuse this question, but I don't know what to call

    What is the red dash box in code view? How do I set it?
    Thanks much

    The red dashed box is what you see when you insert a form on
    a page (INSERT
    | Form > Form).

    Dreamweaver CS4.
    Sorry - I have no idea what you are asking here. Do you NEED
    a form on your
    page? If you do, and you are wanting to alter the appearance
    of it, use
    CSS. You do know that the red dashes are only seen when
    looking at the page
    in DW's Design view, right? Or maybe are you asking how to
    change THAT
    appearance? Like from red dashes to green dashes? Sorry - I
    have no idea
    how to do that.

    Hello Rony,
    Good question.
    The design of the system is such that RE is updated during the year end closing only. (At the end of the accounting year). During the year RE is not updated but system shows in the FSV the difference between assets & liabilities = to current yearu2019s profit or loss (up to the period).
    Donu2019t worry. Just look at any standard FSV available in the system, copy it and edit it as per your requirements.

  • CS4- Pictures will not update until I choose a tool

    When I try to do anything to a picture the effect or change will not occur until I click on a tool.  Then it will instantly show the change I made.  Doesn't matter what tool I choose and doesn't matter what the change..i.e. sharpen....using a filter etc.  Also, for instance, if I choose unsharp mask (doesn't matter what I choose...this is just an example) the picture will not show in the preview window unless I choose the plus or minus symbol beside the 100% and will not show in the preview until I choose one also.  I've tried this on several different layers.  I already had the latest 11.0.1 I believe and have not updated or installed anything lately.  Did a complete virus scan.  My old drivers were working fine but updated to the new ones to try and see if it would help.....amd/ati radeon 3100.  Used shift + CNTL + ALT to clear my preferences....I have tried it with GL on and off.  In short I have tried everything I can think of.  Basically everything works perfectly except after you make any kind of change you have to click a tool or something else before you see the change.  Even clicking the little eye symbol beside each layer will not let you ...see or hide...that layer until you click the eye symbol and then click a tool. Sometimes on starting the application all the choices are greyed out....even exit....until I click a tool.   Anyone got any ideas?  Thanks for your help.  I don't want to have to resinstall...I am on vacation for the next 3 weeks and would like to be able to edit my pictures.

    Re-installing  Photoshop from the DVD or saved download (and updating) is not such a mammoth task by the way.
    There was a similar snag reported some months ago, maybe a forum search would find the posting.

  • Dreamweaver CS4 CSS file links updating problem

    Hi apologies if this question has already been asked, the
    search tool does not seem to be working.
    I have recently installed DW CS4. When you open a page all
    the related files open too so the CSS linked file also opens
    however, if i try to update the CSS file from here when i come to
    save, i get a message box asking if i want to 'update links'? If i
    say yes it updates all the links in my CSS file from ../images to
    the full path of the images and this then creates problems with the
    site. If i say no, it then tells me that my CSS file contains an
    invalid path and then prompts me to 'update links?' again.
    If i open the CSS file separately in DW i dont have any
    problems.
    This is really annoying me, if anyone can help i would be
    grateful!

    Thanks for your replies. I updated my Nvidia video card driver and I deleted the Cache file per the instructions in the link above. Unfortunately I'm still getting the Lockup.
    It locks when I use the CSS panel for a period of time. What's odd is that the CSS panel remains active and I can edit and make changes to the CSS rules. The rest of the interface locks up. The code/design window the menu bar etc. I have to close down DW with the task manger. when I do that I get asked if I want to save the changes to the open files and the changes get saved. But the entire user interface except for the css panel is frozen. Weird.
    The link above suggest deleting the entire personal configuration folder and the extension manager folder. this seems pretty sever and then it seems I would have to re-install the extensions that I have and etc. Perhaps that's what I have to do? This regular lockup is a pain. Like I said the rest of my system and other apps (fireworks, Photoshop, etc) are all rock solid. The problem is strictly with DW.
    Thanks again for your suggestions.

  • Pls. help w/ weird CS4 ID color (not) printing problem

    Just recently moved up from CS2 to CS4, on a Mac running OS 10.5.8 and have run into a weird problem printing to a Konica Minolta BizHub color laser printer. It first happened when the solid light blue background on an old file converted from CS2 wouldn't print. Colors applied to text in the document printed fine, as did color in a placed .eps logo. In troubleshooting here's what what I've found: I can create a brand new document, create simple rectangles filled with solid cyan, solid yellow, solid magenta and black, and only the black will print. However, color filled POLYGONS do print in color just fine--it's only filled rectangles don't print. Here's what I've already tried to fix it: I exported the file back down the chain and printed it from ID CS2 from another Mac and it printed just fine (so it's not the printer); I can print colors just fine from Illustrator CS4 on the Mac where I have the problem (so it's not the BizHub driver); I've restarted the Mac and ID several times, AND I manually trashed the ID preferences (both the Defaults and Saved Data files). No luck. Any ideas?
    More info: continuing my experiments I found that converting a non-printing rectangle through the "convert shape" dialog into a round-corner rectangle allow it to print. A polygon that prints fine, no longer prints if it's converted to a rectangle through the "convert shape" dialog. So the problem is strictly related to square-cornered rectangles.

    InDesign CS4 Blends and ƒx junk didn't work with our BizHub until after applying the new RIP/Driver/Firmware cocktail.
    Are you running V1 or V2 Creo RIP software? If you still have a support contract you can contact Danka (now Konica Minolta digital imaging) and see about getting the new software loaded. Should be running V2.0SP1. V1 has some major kinks with CS4 ƒx, especially nasty with the gradient feather.
    I've got a BizHub here if you want me to see if it works on ours too.

  • Dreamweaver CS4 auto close not functioning properly

    Hey everyone,
    A friend just gave me a trial version of Dreamweaver and I've been testing it out. However I found it odd that some tags auto-close and some don't. An example of this is when I put the <b> tag it auto-closes, but when I type in a <div> tag it doesn't. I already changed the preferences so tags are closed after the opening tags ">". Just wondering if there is another preference I need to change or a bug in the software.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance,
    GK

    Auto Sync is functioning as expected, unless I choose Auto Tone first.
    If I choose Auto Tone first, a small portion of the selected images will be updated, but most will not.
    Lightroom's handling of auto-tone leaves something to be desired - I have a lot of experience with it, trying to make reliable develop-setting plugins which include auto-toning. Those plugins have a bewildering amount of logic - something like this: initiate auto-toning, check back to see if it has properly settled, issue the auto-toning again if it never seems to be properly settling... - usually it works out after a while, but even sometimes it never does, and generates an error: can't get auto-toning to settle across all photos.
    The point of all this is that there are bugs in Lr's handling of auto-toning, as you are growing aware.
    Try this:
    * do the auto-toning, then let it percolate for a while.
    * then visit each photo at 1:1 (to force Lr to finalize settings...), and confirm auto-toning has settled...
    Then try auto-syncing that preset (make sure process versions are all the same, and preset does NOT include auto-toning - I would leave process version OUT of your presets).
    Better?
    I don't expect this is a workflow you'll want to do all the time, but as a test it might help shed some light on the problem.

  • Dreamweaver and Safari - colors not showing up

    I am creating a web site in Dreamweaver, and when I preview it in Safari my background colors do not show up at all. They look fine in Firefox and in mobile device previews. Anyone have any ideas on how to correct this? Thanks!

    Go to Image>Mode and make sure you color is RGB, not gray scale. Also, a preference reset might help: Ctrl/Cmd+Alt/Opt+Shift as you initiate Photoshop startup.

  • Iweb + dreamweaver CS4 + dropdown menu not working on all pc's

    I created a dropdown-menu on CS4 DW, pasted it in html doc. and is part of my iWeb created site.
    Looks ok on apple: safari/firefox/iphone.. but on any pc does not matter which browser, it looks awfull, and the jumpmenu simply is not working.. what can I do to correct this?
    Thanks.

    By jumpmenu are you referring to the navbar at the top? It's well known that IE is not friendly with iWeb's navbar. The workaround for that is to create your own Text Based Navbar.
    As far as the drop down menu, is it java based or html based? I'm not familiar with what does an does not work with IE as I don't do windows so can't help you anymore there.

  • HRMD_A Inbound Idoc with process Code:HRMD not updated in SAP

    Dear friends,

    I have a data file with Personnel data, in WE19, I use idoc_input_hrmd to process the data (with basic type: hrmd_a06). Idoc has been created with status '53'.
