Missing 'commit image size' in properties

Has the "commit image size" in the properties inspector been removed in a recent update? That was handy for resizing images that are too large right in DW and, upon hitting that button, saving it over the original. Is the only option now to open the image in PS and resizing it?

    Right. Image optimization in DW is deprecated.

    1. Dreamweaver is NOT a graphics editor and Photoshop is not code generator.  Use the right tool for the job.

    2. Resizing images with HTML code is the wrong approach to take because it doesn't reduce file size.

     

    ALWAYS optimize your images for the web beforehand in Photoshop (File > Export > Export As) or similar graphics app.  When slight adjustments are needed, use CSS, not HTML code.

     

     

    For example,

    img {max-width: 100%}
