Dreamweaver Error Design Mode

The video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nRIsPc3HNpo describe my trouble.
Anyone have the same trouble?

There was an issue like this caused by setting the css background-color:transparent.
Could that be your problem?
Adobe does have a bug logged for this one...

SWC Load Error - Design Mode Problem

Hi,
I'm loading custom .swcs into my Flash Builder (4.5 Burrito) project and I get these errors. These will only appear in design mode (not in source mode) and will not be labelled under the Problems tab, rather the Design Mode Problems tab:
SWC Load Error
SWC file failed to load. Any component dependent on this SWC file will not be displayed in the Design Mode.
The SWC may have failed to load because of:
* Incompatible definitions caused by usage of a different SDK version
* Missing referred class definitions
I don't think this problem is caused by an SDK incompatibility, as all these swcs have been created under flex 4 and I'm pretty sure under the 4.5 SDK.
Loading the components contained in these swcs onto my canvas (at design time) will work fine. I'm able to build and run the application without any errors caught by flash builder.
Any idea how to fix this problem, or what it means?

SWC Load error indicates that the swc used does not match with the definitions present in design view or with what is present in already loaded other lirbaries. The issue is reported by the flash loader. It looks like that, your swc is compiled with a previous version of the sdk and the design view and the related definition correpsonds to another version.
The incompatability logic is not in DV. When DV tries to load all the swc details available in the project, the loading fails as the loader reports the issue. There is hardly anything, we can do here from DV. If the player reports the incompatability issue, the loader is corrupted and all further loading is ignored. So to avoid such issue, DV ignores the failed swc's and tries to proceed.
If you pass me the swc , I can give the details of the incompatability. Ideally between 4.5 and 4.5.1 there should not have been any incompatability. However your case shows there is. You can contact me at [email protected]

Dreamweaver 8: Java script in Design Mode

Mac OS 10.4.11 Dreamweaver 8
I have a web page with a java script that displays a random picture from a list of images each time you reload the page.
http://www.irises.org
It renders fine when viewed in a browser, but the image does not display when viewed in Dreamweaver Design mode. The random image does not display and lacking the image other things are out of place.
The script that sets up the image array:

The code (further down the page after the all the list elements) that generates the image:
           <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">



</script>
Is there a way to get it to display correctly in the Design mode?
Thanks
<br />
</script>

Is there a way to get it to display correctly in the Design mode?
I don't think so, at least not with this script. What you need is for an image to be displayed on the page by default, and for the javascript to only change the src attribute's value. Something like this -
At the point where you want the image have -
<img src="the_path_to_some_default_image.jpg" id="rotation" />
and in the javascript, change this -
document.write('<img src="'+theImages[whichImage]+'">');
to this -
document.getElementById('rotation').src='theImages[whichImage]';
See if that works....

Design mode troubles - "Error during component layout."

Hi all.
Since this is getting pretty annoying, I thought someone might know the right solution to this. Whenever I try to open Design mode on my AIR app (Spark + MX), I get:
Design mode: Error during component layout. Choose Design > Refresh to refresh design mode.    MyTestApp.mxml    /MyTestApp/src    Unknown    Problem
The MXML code for it is as simple as it can get:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:WindowedApplication xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
                            xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
                            xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx"
                            skinClass="spark.skins.spark.SparkChromeWindowedApplicationSkin"
                            >
</s:WindowedApplication>
And app descriptor XML only contains transparent set to true and systemChrome to none, even tho it shouldn't make any difference in the Design view anyway. Refresh doesn't solve the error, and sometimes the Design view itself goes into infinite loop of refreshing.
However, if I remove the skinClass, it all works fine and Design view loads (but then I don't get the window chrome on run-time). Same goes if I declare the skin within <fx:Style /> tag, it only breaks when using skinClass attribute in the WindowedApplication declaration. And the same thing happens if I try to edit some of the Spark skins in the Design view.
I've tried creating a new project, switching workspaces, building a blank workspace, switching from Flex SDK 4.1 to 4.0 - all to no avail, the same error always occurs and it never goes away.
Any ideas?

Instead of declaring the skin within the WindowedApplication tag, you have to call the Skin class from a Style tag right after you close your window tag:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:WindowedApplication xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
Xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx"
title="YOUR APP">
<fx:Style>
@namespace s "library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark";
s|WindowedApplication
skinClass:ClassReference("spark.skins.spark.SparkChromeWindowedApplicationSkin");
background-color:#999999;
background-alpha:"0.7";
</fx:Style>

Report opens in "Design" mode and throws error

Hi All,
One of my user gets an attached error when he opens a report. I noticed that, this happens because his report always open in "Design" mode. Now when we click on "Reading" mode, it works fine.
Also, this behavior is happening only for one report. What can be the issue ? Is there a way in settings that I can do, so that the report always opens in "Reading" mode.
BI4.1 SP1
Thanks,
Anupam,

Check this KB:
2016483 - error: "while trying to
invoke the method java.util.List.iterator() of null object loaded from
local variable 'nodes' (Error: INF)”

Compiling code throws undeclared errors when trying to view form in design mode.

Let me start this off by admitting that I've committed sacrilege - I edited code inside of a windows forms InitializeComponent() function. I changed this (located in the beginning of the InitializeComponent() function where all UI elements are declared):
this->image = gcnew OpenTK::GLControl();
To this:
OpenTK::Graphics::GraphicsMode^ temp = gcnew OpenTK::Graphics::GraphicsMode(ColorFormat(16, 16, 16, 16), 16, 0, 0, ColorFormat(16, 16, 16, 16), 3 , false);
this->image = gcnew OpenTK::GLControl(temp)
The result is that the code still compiles, but it gives the following errors when I try to view the code in design mode:
The variable 'image' is either undeclared or was never assigned.
"The variable 'temp' is either undeclared or was never assigned."
The former can get eliminated by using two constructors, one with no parameters, followed by an immediate override of the image object with my actual constructor. But I can't seem to get rid of the second problem. Declaring the variable temp outside of the
function didn't help, so I'm not sure if or how I can make this work. Any suggestions on how I can make the design mode parser accept my intrusions? I understand that I've done some evil things to make this happen, but I'd like to keep it more or less like
this since the result is that I have a vsynced windows form.

Hi MHoll4,
It seems that it is not the correct forum for this issue.
Since this issue is related to the WinForms app, I suggest you post this issue to the WinForm forums here:

Design mode: Error during component layout. Choose Design Refresh to refresh design mode.

Description Resource Path Location Type
Design mode: Error during component layout. Choose Design > Refresh to refresh design mode. etPlayer.mxml /etPlayer/src Unknown Problem
Refreshing wont work..
any ideas?

Some elements can cause the design view to break, it recently happened to me and this was my solution.
I began by commenting out most of the visual elements from code and going back and forth to design view to try and get it working.
Finally I narrowed it down to the "ToggleButtonBar" component. After I commented this line out the design view was up and running.
This might not be the solution but it will get you back up and running.

Gui error: Unable to initialize New Visual Design Mode

SAP Frontend Server
Unable to initialize New Visual Design Mode.
Please use Classic Mode.
What can i do with this error? Thanks

Hi,
Do you see this error only in 1 system. If yes, perform the following:
1. Install the updated display drivers.
2. Check the operating system (some old operating systems such as Windows 98, NT doesn't support Visual designs.)
3. Check that you have the latest version of SAP GUI patches installed.
If the problem persists, run sapsweep.exe and install the GUI again.

Design mode error

Hi,
I'm creating a Flex application in which I use several
extended components I created in a separate lib.
In my root application, only for some of the extended
components, I get the following warning:
"Design mode: Error creating item com.foo.bar in parent
Application. Please choose Design > Refresh to refresh design
mode."
The refresh doesn't work, and those components don't appear
in the design mode.
I couldn't find the cause for some of the components to
behave differently.
All the components work as expected when running the app -
the problem is only in the design mode.
Did someone encounter this problem and know how to resolve
it?
Thanks,
Y.

It is related to the non-visual components. Sorry I didn't
see this thread earlier.
There is a flag you can use in your code to prevent
instantiating these pieces when you are in design view.
First, import the internal name space and UIComponentGlobals
import mx.core.mx_internal;
import mx.core.UIComponentGlobals;
Inside of your source, you can do the following:
if ( UIComponentGlobals.mx_internal::designTime ) {
//Things to do in design view
} else {
//things to do at runtime
I prevent any validators or rpc services from instantiating
in design view. This has made a world of difference.

Dreamweaver CS3- can not paste from Word into Design mode window

Have been away from DW for a while, and upon return having a
bit of difficulty with paste function for text. I can select text
in design mode/window; I can type in design mode, but I can not
paste into design mode. I can only paste in code view or the code
half of split view. Is there a setting/preference I have set wrong?
Thx

Designer mode error.. VS2013

Hi,
Something has changed in my PC. I can drag and drop NI controls into forms but those are not visible anymore when the form is reopened. Please see the following picture:
I can compile the software and everything works OK in the compiled program.. Just the designer mode has the problem..
I have VS2013 and MS3013. The environment has been configured to work together and it has been OK one year or something. Maybe something happened when I tried to update Measurement Sudio.. there were some new option for VS2013 but I never could install that.
br,
Ilkka
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi, Ilkka
This issue is being caused because the Visual Studio designer is loading NationalInstruments.Common from the program files directory instead of from the GAC. This seems to be happening because the Visual Studio designer is loading assemblies in a way that ignores configuration files.
The solution is to copy the latest version of Common and its dependencies to the program files directory where all the current Measurement Studio assemblies are. To fix the issue:
Copy NationalInstruments.Common.dll from C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\assembly\GAC_MSIL\NationalInstruments.Common\<latest version>\ to C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\MeasurementStudio<version>\DotNET\Assemblies\Current.
Copy NationalInstruments.NiLmClientDLL.dll fromC:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\assembly\GAC_MSIL\NationalInstruments.NiLmClientDLL\<latest version>\ to C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\MeasurementStudio<version>\DotNET\Assemblies\Current.
Copy NationalInstruments.MStudioCLM.dll from C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\assembly\GAC_MSIL\NationalInstruments.MStudioCLM\<latest version>\ to C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\MeasurementStudio<version>\DotNET\Assemblies\Current.
I use a few placeholders in the steps. <version> is the version of Visual Studio support you have installed (e.g., VS2012). <latest version> is the latest version of the assembly which exists in the GAC folder (e.g., v4.0_15.0.40.32769__dc6ad606294fc298).
This issue does not appear to happen in Visual Studio 2010 and earlier. At this point, it seems like a bug in the Visual Studio 2012 and later design view. I will update this page when we uncover more in our investigation.
Would you mind posting a picture of the contents of C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\assembly\GAC_MSIL\NationalInstruments.Common\ here?
Warm regards,
Daniel D.

Design Mode Stopped Showing Images and Text

I've been working in Dreamweaver MX for quite a few years;
and I've had this website for over a year. Just recently I
downloaded IE7 and this caused many Javascript errors. I
uninstalled IE7 and these errors are resolved.
My problem is that on almost every one of my pages the design
mode only shows the background image. I made no changes to these
pages; it just stopped working. I've tried searching for broken
tags, and I can't find any.
I downloaded MX patch 6 and installed it today, but it didn't
resolve the issue. I also noticed that my HTML docs are now changed
to XHTML and I"m not sure HOW that happened!

If my memory serves me correctly, MX didn't write the correct
code for
the DOCTYPE, so when you installed the update, it corrected
the code on
your page.

Question about eaither a user or dreamweaver error

Hello everyone,
When I added some html code that integrates with another php file for a "contact us" form, now all of the content almost is blank in dreamweaver. I can still preview in the browser and it looks correctly but am wondering why it does not show in dreamweaver design mode how it does in the browser.. I have googled and not found anything but maybe trying to google for the wrong thing.
Here is what the page looks like in dreamweaver
http://img101.imageshack.us/i/dreamweavererror1.jpg/
Here is what it looks like in firefox when I preview the page from dreamweaver
http://img713.imageshack.us/i/dreamweavererror2.jpg/
Has anyone had this problem or know how to fix it? Why did everything dissappear off of the page once I added the contact us form code, is there a setting I need to check off to allow active content or something? Thanks!

An extra closing division where none is needed might make this happen.

Embeded Videos no longer show up in Dreamweaver CS5 Peview mode

I am having a technical problem with Dreamweaver. the website I
have been working on for the past 4 months has a lot of videos embed off of
YouTube and all has been fine but for a reason that I cannot figure out two days ago. The videos I was
embedding of YouTube stopped showing up in the preview mode of Dreamweaver in
any browser. The grey box. Is still there in Design mode, but not in preview.
Mode. Just A note any video embedded prior to two days ago still works fine I have fried the following
Tried 3 different browsers Crome Mozilla and IE
Tried 7 different videos off of YouTube
Tried to embed a previously successful video that had worked off of YouTube
Tried a different authoring programs(Kompozer,Frontpage)
Tried testing the files on a browser on another computer
I have even tried switching to Dreamweaver CS6
None of this options have worked at fixing the problem but my new website
will have lots of videos and I need to preview them in the browser any
suggestions would be great.
Chris Mason

Is your src in the 'iframe' for youtube like this?
src="//www.youtube.com/embed/agiu6koSU4k"
Change it to this and save it locally and preview it locally in a browser to see if it works:
src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/agiu6koSU4k"
If it does, you can use the same copy online on your server as well.
Thanks for your feedback.

mx:Image no image preview in Design Mode

Inside my Flash Builder (4.01) AIR project, the image preview in design mode for the mx:Image component does not show the image set with the source attribute.
This seems to be a project specific problem. When I create a new project , insert mx:image and set the source to an image, the image is previewed just fine. I also get a possible related error saying : "Design mode could not load swiz-framework-1.0.0-RC1.swc. It may be incompatible with this SDK, or invalid. (DesignAssetLoader.CompleteTimeout)"
This error pops up in several google searches and is by some regarded as an sdk bug, so I dont know the relevance here.
This happens in various flavours of the Flex SDK (4.0/4.1 latest versions).
Thanks in advance

Ok, I found out it has definitively something to do with the "Design mode could not load swiz-framework-1.0.0-RC1.swc. It may be incompatible with this SDK, or invalid. (DesignAssetLoader.CompleteTimeout)" warning. This somehow affects the loading of the mx:Image.
Recompiling the SWC might work with the swiz swc, but there are more swc's giving this error like the google maps swc which does not have the source avalable freely.
This is a real pain as I like to use a mockup image in Design Mode to place components exactly as provided by the design team.
