Linting

Hi,

I'm on a mac version: 10.10.5 and I just updated the OS system. When I opened Dreamweaver, I notice the update to the Dreamweaver software. I'm running Dreamweaver 2017. I was working a file ( .html ) and I noticed I made a mistake in the code and then I realized the "X" didn't appear at the bottom of the page. See the image I attached. I made a additional intentional errors but that green checkmark never changes. In the older version, it would've turned red with a "X". Any idea why I'm having this issue now and how can I fix it?

It doesn't change until you save in CC2017.

There were, I think 3 different available options of when to fire the Linting in CC2015, but they were removed and it only fires after the document is saved now.

You'll also notice, the red x won't go away even after fixing the error, again until you save the document.

Considering I have to save to see the error...is there no way that can change? Seeing the error as it happens.

There's no way to change it currently, no.

In DW, go to Help > Feature Request/Bug Report to start a discussion, or add your voice to an existing one, for the reinstatement of the functionality from CC 2015.

What Jon said.  In this version, you have to save the file first to see changes in Error Indicator and Output panel.
