Hello,

Anybody knows where is the "Show invisible files" option in Dreamweaver CC2018 to display files like .htaccess in the "Files" panel?

It was previously located in a dropdown menu at top right of the "Files" panel, but this panel has been redesigned in CC2018 and i can't find the dropdown anymore.

Thanks for your infos.

    Files in the panel are shown as per setting in the operating system. Dreamweaver does not have a setting as far as I know.

    Wappler is the DMXzone-made Dreamweaver replacement and includes the best of their powerful extensions, as well as much more!

    Sorry, not sure i understand your answer.
    If i create a .htaccess file locally in DW, it shows in the "Local files" left column although MacOS doesn't show those files beggining by a dot in its Finder.

    There's already a .htaccess on my server, but DW doesn't show it in the "Distant server" right column.

    If i copy my local .htaccess to distant server in DW, it appears in the DW "Distant server" right column… a bit strange behavior.

    I'm pretty sure DreamWeaver used to have a "Show invisible files" option in the "Files" panel, but i can't find it neither in DW CC2015.

    It should have been removed by Adobe at some point.

    Anyway, thanks for your answer.
