Little Irritant

Hi there.

 

This isn't a bug but just a little irrataing issue in your page coding.

At the bottom right of DW there is a little green tick icon with the tag 'No errors'.

When there is a code problem this changes to a red cross.

Click on it when it's red and you get a page showing the code violation. Click on it again and the page closes.

 

Unfortunately, when you fix the code violation and it changes to green, due to the fix, clicking on the green icon does nothing.

 

Can I ask that this little bug be changed, so clicking on it when it goes to green closes the fault page.

It would make life just that little bit easier.

Having to open the 3 horizontal lines and select Close Tag Group each time is a tad annoying.

 

Cheers, Jon.

To close all panels, use (function keys enabled) F4.

 

You can customize & save your Workspace however you like by dragging & docking panels, grouping panels together, etc...

Collapsing Output panel is Shift + F6.

Hi Nancy.

Thanks for replying.

I always do try to keep the code good, but unfortunately sometime there is a mistake I've missed.

If I know there is an issue that I intend to rectify later, I can close the panel by just clicking on the 'X' icon (1). but if I fix the issue immediately and (1) turns green, I can no longer close this panel without opening the 'group' icon (2) and selecting 'Close Tab Group'.

The icon I'm talking about is shown in my image (1).

When it's red as shown here, you can close this panel.

 

When it's green you can't.

Hope this is more clear.

I'm not sure I understand the issue.  Your Output panel shows code errors in real time.

 

Working with error-free code is always good practice to keep DW from behaving erratically.

To toggle Output panel on/off, use Shift+F6.
