Hello,

I develop an extension (for webEdition) for dreamweaver at the moment. This extension contains also a tag library.

Some of these tags have many attributes. Now the Window of the Tag Editor is too small to show all attributes.

A grouping of the attributes is not possible.

Is there a possibility to set a text-overflow attribute of a div?
Is there a possibility to set the Dimensions of the window? I already checked windowDimensions, but its not called when i open the Tag Editor.

This problems occures in DW MX 2004, 8 and CS3

I hope anybody can help me with this problem.

I don't think there's an automatic way to do this. You can set the height of the div using CSS, (<div style="height:400px">) but there is a max height of the dialog. I assume you're hitting this limit if you're asking about scrolling. I couldn't think of a way to get the dialog to have native OS scroll bars.

However, I think you can set up your own type of scrolling with a bit of work and JavaScript. The basic idea is to add your own buttons for scrolling and in the onclick event for the button use JavaScript to set display = 'none' or clear the display property of a node, depending on if you want to show or hide it. You'll have to work on how you layout your controls since you can set display to none on tr tags, which is how most of the tag dialogs are laid out.

Hope that helps,
