Hello i recently updated to DW 2017 my main problem is when i double click to select an element including the php $ symbol, the past version only selects the "name" of the variable, leaving aside the $ symbol, this new version includes the symbol in the select, how can i only select the name? regards

The current behavior makes sense to me, even if it isn't what you prefer. Within PHP, DW2017 will select the $ of the variable but will not select the other symbols upon double click.

$temp

#temp

"temp

Well maybe for your flow, it works well. But for my flow, it doesn't.

So, how to cater to both our types? Just put it as part of setting, easy right?

That's what I'm talking about.

As for making sense, here's an example:

$myvar=$get['myvar'];

Now, I wanna copy paste yourvar and replace the myvar on top.

Try double-clicking and achieving that for both cases. In this browser, you can, rightfully, and it makes sense.

In DW, it works fine for the second one, for the first one, you have to add the $ manually after pasting, or not use double-click-select at all.

Hope u understand my point.

DW 2017 is damned. I use notepad ++, very simple and it is not greedy. RAM says thank you. Personally, I use the other adobe software except dreamweaver since version DW2017. Pity.
