Dual Screen Setup

Hi,

I saw that this is asked a lot but I couldn’t find the right answer to this. I want to work with Dreamweaver CC for the live preview.

BUT it’s so damn small on one screen, so my wish is to split the preview window from my code window and put it on my second screen.

Is this somehow possible? For example: Code on one screen, live preview on the other one.

I really need this. If there is already a working solution, please link me to the thread. I couldn’t find it.

Thanks,

Jona

I'm using Mac OS (High Sierra) and latest Dreamweaver CC Version.

Not sure if this will help, but it will give you an idea of what my setup is. Dreamweaver program on screen #1 and Live Preview on screen #2.

This is pretty simple to do actually.

Go to Window > Code Inspector or hit F10. That will open the Code Inspector floating panel. You can then grab the named tab of the panel and drag it to whichever screen you like and resize it to your liking. You then switch the actual Document Window to Live, deselecting Split from the Document Toolbar....

you're probably right, Ben, I thought that the OP was meaning the Live Editable View... not the Live Preview in browser...

Here is a tutorial on live view and Design view Adobe Dreamweaver CC Live Vs. Design View - YouTube

This should help you out.

the split document window is a non undockable stuff, I mean you can't split code and rendering on two dissociate windows...

so what you can do if you really want to have live view in one side (screen) and code view in a second side (other monitor)... totaly separated... you will have to use the code inspector (F10) window.

that should work as you wish
