I have version 21.3 of Dreamweaver. I cannot find how to insert an AP or "floating" Div into a page. It used to be part of the drop down menu for "INSERT" but I can't find it anywhere and the online chat people are clueless. And there is no phone support for DW. HELP!
Indeed, direct access via the menu and property inspector have been removed for several versions now.
If you want to use floating elements and/or absolute positioning (AP), you'll have to do so in code. It's not very complicated, and you'll find good explanations on MDN https://developer.mozilla.org/fr/docs/Web/CSS/position.
Beware, however, that a common error is that elements positioned Absolute are positioned in relation to their first explicitly positioned parent. For this reason, it's often usual to position the referent container with a Relative position, which doesn't vary its position in the flow, but provides a defined anchor for the child block to be positioned abolutely.
