Not able to select columns to adust

I have been using Dreamweaver for a long time.  I suddenly am unable to select columns to adjust the with or height.  I have 2 tables on the same page.  The first one allows me to select and adjust but not the second.  I can select and change content of the cells in both.  Is there something I selected that locked up the ability to adjust these columns?

Thanks,

JP

When things stop working as expected, it's almost always caused by code errors.

Get into the habit of checking your code often and fix reported errors.

In the latest version of DW CC, go to Window > Results > Validation.   See screenshots.

Hi there,

Thank you for using Dreamweaver. We are sorry to hear you're having trouble in selecting the column and adjusting the Width/ Height. That doesn't look quite right to me. Let me see how I can help.

I would suggest you go under the View menu  View>View Mode>Design. In Design Mode you should be able to stretch the table, and you can edit them in the Properties panel. Please try these steps and see if that works for you.

If not, would you mind sharing a few more details with us which will help us figure out what is causing the issue like?

  • Which version of Dreamweaver you are using?
  • Which mode are you in Split/Design/Live/Code?
  • Did you create the table using Table>Insert>Table and choosing the format from one of the provided formats?

Waiting for your response.

Thanks,

Harshika

Thanks for replying to my post. I created a new table and dragged the content from the table having trouble. It works ok now. Not sure what happened to the table but I’m happy it resolved the issue. Thanks again

I just looked and although there are a lot of columns and rows it shows as only 1.
