Files Window always displays in front

Since upgrading to CC (might have also been an issue in CS6, can't remember), the files window always displays as the top window. I like to have it fill a good portion of my monitor so that I can easily see the ftp file next to the local files and also view dates of files. If I want to work in a particular file I have open, I have to close out my sites window. More so, when I leave Dreamweaver open in the background and switch to another application, the files window will still display over top of everything else on my monitor.
Is there any way to change this behaviour or should it be reported as a bug. I am working on an iMac running Mountain Lion.

Hi Amikin,
Can you provide a video cast of what you are experiencing?
You can use jing as its free and fast to set-up so I can help investigate this further for you.

How can I add the date to a PDF file that always displays today's date?

I am trying to convert a word document into a PDF file. The word document has a field code for the date, but when I convert it to PDF format, the field code is not preserved.

Convert using what? Acrobat? PDF Pack? Microsoft Office?

Switched Views in Site Files window [DW MX]

I'm using DW MX (not 2004 or DW8), and somehow the Site Files
window's display of Remote and Local files got switched around. Now
Remote files are on the left, and Local files are on the right. Not
a huge deal, but it's counterintuitive to me, and I'd like to
restore the normal setup.
How do I reset the view to the normal scheme? (Local on left,
Remote on right) I can't see any way to do it.
TIA,
steve
PS: I'm on Mac OX 10, if that matters...

For DW MX 2004 on Windows, go to Edit > Preferences >
Site. Set the
"Always show" menu to "Local Files on the Left". I think it's
the
same for DW MX.
Hope this helps,

I redownloaded my Photoshop CS5 and Camera Raw will not accept my RAW files nor will the Adobe Bridge display the picture view of these files. A message displays saying it doesn't support this camera. I have a Nikon 5100 DSLR Camera. It always displayed them in the past. How can I get it to display these photos in Bridge and open them in RAW?

The best audience for applets is people off the internet. 'People off the internet' might be using a computer that has no (what was it?) 'open.html' in the root of the C: drive. In fact (shock horror) they may not even be running Windows, and would therefore probably have no 'C:' drive at all.
If you do not intend to distribute this to people off the web, an application makes a lot more sense, but even then, you cannot rely on the document being there unless you 'put it there' (during installation, for instance).
As the other poster intimated, applets can load documents off the local disk as long as they are trusted. Here is an example*, but note that it is not so rash as to presume any particular path or file, and instead leaves it to the user to choose the document to display.
* The short code can be seen at SDNShare on the [Defensive Loading of Trusted Applets|http://sdnshare.sun.com/view.jsp?id=2315] post.
On the other hand, a sandboxed applet can load any document coming from its own server via URL, or get showDocument(URL) to work. In that case, the JRE must recognize that the URL is from its own server, so the best way to form URLs for applet use is via the URL constructor
new URL(getDocumentBase(), "path/to/open.html");That is how I form the URL in this [ sandboxed example of formatting source|http://pscode.org/fmt/sbx.html?url=/jh%2FHelpSetter.java&col=2&fnt=2&tab=2&ln=0]. Of course, in this case the applet loads the document, then parses the text to draw the formatted version, but the point is that an URL produced this way will work with showDocument(URL).
I am pretty sure showDocument() in an applet off the internet will work with an URL pointing to a foreign (not its own) server, but it will not be able to load documents off the end user's local disks.
I suggest a couple of things.
- Try to express this problem in terms of what feature it is that you want to offer the end user. Your question jumps directly to a bad strategy for achieving ..who knows what? An example of a feature is "Shows the applet 'help' files on pressing F1".
- A good way to indicate interest in a solution is to offer [Duke stars|http://wikis.sun.com/display/SunForums/Duke+Stars+Program+Overview] to match that interest.
Edit 1:
..and please figure out how to use the CODE tags.

How can I script a Flash .exe file to always stay on top of all other windows?

Hi All,
I'm new to action script, and I just need this one script
> How can I script a Flash .exe file to always stay on top of

Basically what i want to do is have a flash-created
step-by-step instructional movie, but for the movie to remain on
top of all windows so the instructee is able to follow the
instructions on-screen...
It would be preferable to not have to buy another product
just to do this... as I said, this is the only scripting I need.
Thanks in advance
Cheers

if you create your exe with mProjector you can use one of its
new AS
commands to do this.

You can check the home page setting:
*Tools > Options > General > Startup: Home page
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page
You can check for problems with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox Profile Folder that store session data.
Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder

Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

Hi Ashley Clavette,
The Initial view setting works perfectly when the file is opened in Acrobat after setting the desired Initial View.
When you upload the file onto Wordpress, and view it on that website in the browser...it might be using a different pdf handler program which might be causing this issue ( it would be helpful, if you could provide the screenshot) , however when you download the pdf again from wordpress server...and open in Acrobat/Reader...then what exactly happens ? Does the pdf opens in the desired Initial View setting?

Stage.nativeWindow.alwaysInFront how to keep the window always in front

Hi, I've just written and application that needs to always be in front of the other applications. I have set the application's nativeWindow.alwaysInFront property to true, but, after a few other air applications open the application will get pushed behind. It seems to work when the first application opens up, but after opening a second time it will no longer be on top. Any suggestions? Thanks.

One way is to browse your iTunes Music Library in the Finder and open the video file with QuickTime instead of playing it in iTunes. Then you have always-on-top and also fixes the "full screen on 2nd monitor" problem. Maybe not ideal, but a workaround.

I can't open a silverlight dmg file-it always opens Terminal window

Hi, I can't open a silverlight dmg file to watch netflix. I am running Lion on my 2.66ghz iMac i5 with 10.7.3. I can download and install silverlight but when I try to open the file, it always opens the Terminal window. Please Help.

It sounds like all your launch services file associations have somehow been corrupted. I suggest your reset the launch services bake to their initial default settings.
The easiest way for you to do this is probably to get a maintenence utility like OnyX (download the Lion version for your case). It has, among many other things, a way to rebuild the launch services. Launch OnyX. It will ask for your admin password and a window like below will be dispallyed.
As you can see from the above picture in OnyX you select Maintenance, Rebuild tab, check the LaunchServices checkbox, and click the Execute button (not shown here but it's at the bottom of the window).
Note, the above shows the window for the Snow Leopard version of OnyX. I don't know if the Lion version is different since I don't use Lion.

The Files window in Dreamweaver stays in front when it is not active

How do I get the Files window in Dreamweaver CC to 'jump' behind the active window. It is VERY ANNOYING(!) as it is now when it stays in front on the screen although it is not active. I remember it was like this in an earlier version of DW also, but it was fixed after an update.

Mac File Site window always on top

I am using Dreamweaver 8.0, but have seen this exact same
issue on a Windows CS3 install and a Mac CS3 install.
I like to have the Files Window detached from the right side,
and expanded so I can see the Remote Site and Local Files lists
side by side. When I open an html file, I expect the html file to
open on top of the file list window. It works this way on some
installs, but not on others, very annoying. In the problem
installs, I must manually move the file (site) window way down to
the right to expose the html file I want to work on. Then when I
want open another html file, I have to drag it file window back up,
to see my file list, double click on the file, and then move the
file list back out of the way.
In other words, in the problem setups, the File Window is
"always on top", so it must be a preference or setting, but I
cannot figure out.
Please help me fix this annoying problem.

I'm having the exact same problem in DW CS5 now. Did you find a solution? Hitting fn+F8 isn't going to work on my iMac extended keyboard. F8 is the iTunes play pause button. Besides, having to command-tab to an app THEN hit fn+F8 just isn't going to work obviously.
I can't believe in 2010 this is broken.
Please do let me know if you found a way around it. I tried all the different layout prefabs in CS5, and without exception they all do it.

Capture window always uses the wrong name-

Hello everyone, I'm having this problem… when I go to capture HDV footage the Capture Window always remembers the name of the LAST clip I captured, when I change it and do all my capturing I find out that all my clips (and with HDV that can be a lot) have still retained the wrong name (in the browser and on my scratch disk). I tried trashing preferences and it works for the first time and goes back to this. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!
