Dreamweaver Fluid Grid Problems

  I am having some weird issues since the upgrade to Dreamweaver CC 2014.1.1. I have Dreamweaver installed on an Asus laptop with the following specifications:
Windows 8.1 64bit
Intel Core i7-3630QM
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670M 3gig
NVidia Graphics Driver 9.18.13.4752
24 gig ram
256 SSD Drive (Program installed on this drive)
750gb 7200 HD (files installed on this drive)
The problems I am running into are as follows:
When resizing the fluid grid in live view, I can select the right part of the div and drag it over to the left. When I try to click the left div and drag it over to the right it will not let me. I have to click to another view (for example from phone view to tablet then back to phone view) in order to drag the div over.
If I have several pages open and I switch from one page to another the code from previous page is showing until I do a refresh.
As many others are experiencing, it is slow when I type some text inside the div. Also when I change a CSS property (I have a separate attached CSS file) it takes a few seconds for the result to show in live view.   All in all when dealing with all this, it gets somewhat frustrating.
I wasn't experiencing any problems like this before this upgrade.
Any thoughts on what I can do on my end to help with this?

Personally, I'd just go back to the older version and keep an eye on the forums until Adobe comes up with something. This is becoming much more commonplace with the latest release.
You can roll back using the Creative Cloud Desktop App by clicking the Apps tab, then scroll down to the Filters and Previous Versions link. That will turn the Install icons into dropdown menus with the available older versions.
I stopped upgrading DW with CC 2014.0 (last June's release), it has been rock solid for me. That version isn't available through the app though, you would have to download it directly from the link below:

  • Responsive scaling of Edge Animate composition in Dreamweaver Fluid Grid Layout

    I have created an animation in Edge Animate and have placed it in the header of a Dreamweaver Fluid Grid Layout. I have put it in a div by itself so it can be turned off in the mobile layout. When I test the layout in a browser, the Edge Animate composition scales responsively to the window size, but the height of the div it is in does not. The width of the div changes with the width of the window, but the height of the div remains the same. Because the height of the div doesn't change, as the animation responds and resizes it leaves a large empty space between the bottom of the animation and the content that follows it on the page.
    The div itself does not have a rule for it's height associated with it. It seems to me that the div is getting its height from the original size of the html object which is the animation. I tried removing the height rule for the object, but then the div clips the bottom of the animation, and again, it doesn't resize with the window.
    Is there a way I can get the div's height to resize with the size of the animation as it changes?

    Thanks for your reply. You're right about most people not resizing their viewport during a session, but unfortunately the problem exists whether the screen is being resized or not. Refreshing the screen doesn't solve the problem.
    The width of the div adjusts to the width of the screen as expected and the Edge Animate composition inside it does too, but the height of the div doesn't adjust. As the animation gets smaller to fit the width, the height of the div that contains it remains the same, leaving empty space at the bottom of the div. What is needed is for the div to scale to fit the page width proportionally. Instead, only the width is adjusting.
    So I guess I need to know if there's either a way to force the div to scale proportionally or a way to tell it to adjust to the animation that it contains.

  • Dreamweaver Fluid Grid Layout

    Hi everybody! Doesn't it feel like the Fall weather? I love it as I see the trees changing colors. I will miss Summer but will enjoy the Fall holidays.
    This question goes back to one I asked a while ago but it is different. I decided to update to DW CC and I can't tell you how much I love it as
    I have watched all of the tutorials and find it much easier than the previous version.
    One thing I decided to do was to use the Dreamweaver Fluid Grid layout. I totally understand how it works for the most part. When I go to DW CC and the load up screen, I Select fluid grid layouts and then I am presented with a smartphone version, a tablet version, and a desktop version. I left the defaults as they seem to be updated and correct. This is the thing, I design my mockups in PS. I guess I am baffled on how to code that offer to DW. When I always created a fixed layout, I would easily just measure out the divs in PS and then create them in DW sizing everything to perfectly match my initial mockup.
    Now that I am using a fluid layout. I am presented with columns. Again, I left them as the default. My question is, I am designing in PS, I am designing for a specific resolution of 1024x768. But I am just confused on if I need to decrease columns or add columns to fit that, or if I even need to at all. For my specific resolution, should I change the desktop columns to somehow correspond to a 1024x768 resolution? The default is 12 columns. In Photoshop, is there a way to insert a fluid like grid to help me with my mockup?
    Sorry if this is a lot, but I would appreciate any help, thank you so much!

    Hi Nancy! I hope you have been well. Thanks so much for taking the time to post screen shots.
    I thought I just needed to create a mockup in PS with a 1024x768 resolution, and slice images. With the fluid layout, I inserted for example, my header image or banner at the top and I inserted it in the desktop view, it looked normal. It was sliced in a 1024 x 768 mockup. But, when I go to tablet and smartphone, it shrinks and it looks distorted almost. Is there something I am doing wrong?
    You stated that I needed to create 3 mockups in PS based on those sizes. Does that mean I would have to slice them all and place them in their proper sized sections smart phone, tablet, and desktop?
    Here is a video I watched. It seems like this guy used the same image and it looks just fine in all sizes. Create fluid, responsive web pages in Dreamweaver | Learn Dreamweaver CC | Adobe TV

  • "Could not find  Dreamweaver Fluid Grid style sheet error" in Dreamweaver CS6

    I have error in Adobe Dreamweaver CS6 which is part of the Creative Suite 6 Master Collection.

    #1 Go to File > New FluidGrid Layout > select 3rd item > Hit Create button.  See screenshots.
    #2  DW will prompt you for a file name and location for your new FluidGrid.css file.  Give your style sheet a name without spaces or special characters eg. MyFluidGrid.css.  Save.
    #3 From the SourceCode tag, hit Ctrl+S to Save your HTML Page.  DW will set the corrected path to your external files:

  • Fluid Grid problem dreamweaver cc  in IE11

    Site made in dreamweaver cc with fluid grid layout. It looks and works fine in Safari en Google CHrome but the fluid grid does not work in IE11. Someone a solution?  http://www.fvdc.be

    Troubles with the fluid grid not entirely solved.
    The solution was that i imported tables in the Fluid Grid and that was not a good idea!
    At the moment i am one step ahead but still not satisfied with the result.
    The appearance in IE11 looks better, never the less when i reduce the screen size, the layout does not follow all the way.
    Even in Fire Fox, Safari and google chrome.
    There is even an additional problem.
    II do only get one direction right on mobile screens. Vertical or horizontal, but not both.
    In adapting on Dreamweaver, when i set-up one scene size right for horizontal and vertical positioning then the layout of the other screen sizes change as well (in the wrong way)
    In viewing our site you probably understand the problem better then in the explanation in this writing.

    Thanks for all the previous advice and we hope to get an answer to this post!
    Thanks a head, greets from Frank

  • Edge Animate Stage size in Dreamweaver fluid grid

    I have developed an animation and have almost everything scaling and resizing acceptably in a Dreamwaevr template...except the stage.
    In Edge animate I have a stage size that is 1212px x 400px. When the animation is viewed on a PC all the dimensions are fine, but when viewed in tablet or mobile phone, the vertical height remains at 400px... which leaves an enormous gap between the bottom of the animation and the next div.
    I have set the stage dimensions to %, and have turned on the "link width & height" switch, and the stage still does not respond in vertical height.
    How can I get the stage to respond vertically with a fluid grid layout in Dreamweaver?
    I also note that every time I open up a previously saved Edge Animate file, the stage automatically opens the file at 550x400px, instead of the correct dimension for that animation, so that I have to then reset the stage size to what is correct for that animation... ..any reason this may be so?
    Thanks,
    Glen.

  • Dreamweaver Fluid Grid and Twitter Bootstrap

    Does anyone know if it's possible to graft the Twitter Bootstrap styling, elements and functioning onto the Fluid Grid in Dreamweaver CS6? If so how?
    I think it would be great to be able to have the ease of manipulating the rows and columns using the Fluid Grid and have all the cool styling and all from Twitter Bootstrap.

    Here is the complete grid css file that I'm using. It is modified from the original bootstrap. Different class names. It's wrapped in a media query so that the grid only applies above 768px. It gives you a 12 grid system.

  • What are the Photoshop design dimensions for Dreamweaver fluid grid layout?

    If I were to build a website using Dreamweavers fluid grid layout, what are the dimensions in Photoshop I should be designing with?

    FluidGrid Layouts are based on % widths; not fixed pixel widths.   As such your PShop design comps will need to be planned with these device widths in mind.
    320px - 480px wide = mobile
    481px - 768px width = small tablet
    600px - 1024px width = large tablet
    1024px - 1233px width = desktop/laptop

  • Fluid grid problem design view

    Need Help, Dreamweaver CC, operating on Windows 7 64 bit
    My design view panel is set to 480 x 800
    From the CSS Designer Panel, I select my fluid_grid.css from the sources section
    I select GLOBAL from the @Media section
    For some odd reason, my mobile size is changed to 1129 x 603
    If I go back and set the screen size for 480 x 800, the @Media GLOBAL is deselected........ HELP!
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled.
    Thanks in Advance,
    Bryan

    GLOBAL targets the section of your style rules that is not subjected to media queries.
    only screen and ( min-width: 481px ) targets the style rules that are subjected to that media query.
    and so forth
    The reason that screen widths less than 481px are not subjected to media queries is because the design is mobile first. In other words, if there were no media queries in your CSS, then all screen sizes would have the same style rules applied as if they were less than 481px.

  • Fluid grid layout problem

    I am trying to create a fluid grid layout.  In fact it is why I purchased Dreamweaver CS6.  Problem is after I create the first div which I named header it works fine.  However, on inserting the next div Dreamweaver inserts the following text in my index.html:
    @charset "utf-8"; /* Simple fluid media Note: Fluid media requires that you remove the media's height and width attributes from the HTML http://www.alistapart.com/articles/fluid-images/ */ img, object, embed, video { max-width: 100%; } /* IE 6 does not support max-width so default to width 100% */ .ie6 img { width:100%; } /* Dreamweaver Fluid Grid Properties ---------------------------------- dw-num-cols-mobile:3; dw-num-cols-tablet 8; dw-num-cols-desktop: 12; dw-gutter-percentage 20; Inspiration from "Responsive Web Design" by Ethan Marcotte http://www.alistapart.com/articles/responsive-web-design and Golden Grid System by Joni Korpi http://goldengridsystem.com/ */ /* Mobile Layout: 480px and below. */ .gridContainer { margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; width: 85.9444%; padding-left: 2.5277%; padding-right: 2.5277%; } #LayoutDiv1 { clear: both; float: left; margin-left: 0; width: 100%; display: block; } #header { clear: both; float: left; margin-left: 0; width: 100%; display: block; } #nav { clear: both; float: left; margin-left: 0; width: 100%; display: block; } /* Tablet Layout: 481px to 768px.

    I suspected the respond.min.js file was causing the problem so I downloaded an update but it didn't help.  At this point I am not able to use this feature of Dreamweaver.  Any help will be appreciated.

    Thanks for the help.  I am using version 12.0 build 5861.
    I was trying to follow the example in a book I have called Dreamweaver CS6 – The Missing Manual.  When I got to the section discussing Fluid Grid Layout, I attempted to follow the example step by step.  I was able to insert the first div which I named header.  I looked at my css file and it had placed the #header.
    I knew that I had to remain within the container  div.  I went into the code view and placed the cursor to the right of the header div.  I then clicked the insert Fluid Grid Layout Div Tag button.  That’s when it automatically inserted all of the code I indicated in my post.
    I then started to follow the example in http://www.adobe.com/inspire/2012/08/fluid-grid-layouts-dreamweaver-cs6.html .  I got the same results.
    I’m beginning to wonder if there is an error in the Dreamweaver software itself.
    Any help you can give will be appreciated.

  • I downloaded Dreamweaver CC 2014.1, started using it but cannot find Show Fluid Grid Layout Guides button, Resize LI.link sizing handle and 'move up a Row' arrow. Where can I find them?

    I downloaded Dreamweaver CC 2014.1, started using it but cannot find Show Fluid Grid Layout Guides button, Resize LI.link sizing handle and 'move up a Row' arrow. Where can I find them?

    You have the latest version (CC 2014.1 or 2014.1.1) in which the interface condenses Design View with Live View buttons in normal layouts.  See screenshot.
    However, in FGLayouts, Live View is the only option which poses some editing problems and has been highly criticized.
    Is there any way to display the Design View in fluid grid pages?

  • Unable to edit elements in Fluid Grid Layout - Dreamweaver CC

    Hello. I have an issue whereby the elements inserted in to a Fluid Grid Layout designed webpage become 'locked' (??) I can no longer edit them and when they are clicked on I just get a blue border. No handles, eye, delete button etc..
    I cannot find any pattern on why this is happening and seems to be random. Although I am happy to accept I am doing something wrong..
    Any ideas?

    Are you removing/modifying any of the comments in the related CSS file (custom styles file and not the ones provided by boilerplate/JQuery/etc)
    DW uses some comments to identify the page as a FG page. If you happen to remove/modify any of that, DW will stop recognizing it as a FG page.
    The comment block would look similar to:

  • Hide / Show fluid grids on Dreamweaver CC 2014.1

    Hello !
    How can we hide the fluid grid on the 2014.1 release ?
    Thanks a lot !

    Hide how exactly?
    Do you mean you want to use FGLayouts in 2014.1 with Design View?
    Open your Fluid Grid CSS file and add an X as shown below.  This will trick DW into thinking it's a normal layout so you can use Design View, spell check, copy & paste text, etc...

        dw-num-cols-mobile:     X 4;

  • CSS height property use in Fluid grid layout

    Hi, I'm totally new to fluid grid layout and just got started in it. I have a div tag that has 5px height and I sucessfully applied that and seem fine only on Tablet landscape (1024x768) and Small tablet landscape (800x600), nevertheless it isn't even displaying on Mobile portrait (320x480), Mobile landscape (480x320), Small tablet portrait (600x800) and Tablet portrait (768x1024).
    My coding is below

    Height is determined by content.  I can't think of a single reason to have a div height of 5px because almost nothing will fit inside that small a space without problems. 
    As to why it doesn't show up in other devices, you must have put that style into the Tablet CSS code instead of the default Mobile CSS code.
    Fluid Grids build up from Mobile (applied to everything) with specific rules for Tablets, then Desktops.
    Best advice, use Fluid Grids for layout only.  Use a separate CSS file for content styles.
    Hope this helps,
