In Dreamweaver in the CC Libraries panel, when I right click > edit on an image Photoshop is launched by default. I want to change the default to Adobe Fireworks.
I have changed the file associates in Adobe Bridge to associate all image formats with Fireworks and already have Fireworks set up as the only editor for all image formats in Dreamweaver prefs.
Nothing to do with Windows 10 default file associations either.
Any ideas or suggestions appreciated.
Just to reiterate I know how to set default editors in Dreamweaver via preferences > file types/editors, I have been using Dreamweaver since 2000 !!!. I have deleted Photoshop entirely from the the file types/editors settings in Dreamweaver and ONLY have Fireworks set as an editor for jpeg, png, gif as I wanted to see if it had any effect on the CC Libraries panel default 'edit' program..... It doesn't
I don't really think this is a specific Dreamweaver issue per-say and it shouldn't have been

try deleting Photoshop and just leave fireworks as the only editor is the only other suggestion I have - Nest stop is Adobe support ... Good luck

CS6 does not use libraries which was the OPs concern. The rest can also be configured in current Dw editions.

yes there are two thread in one... but as the OP (first thread, about cc library) was solved and marked as so... I 've continued the second thread concerning just the filtetype prefs setting...

no, we can no longer define an external code editor as in previous versions (before CC). the advantage was that it was possible from the file panel, through a right click to select if we wanted to edit the file from DW or from the external code editor, and to simply modify at any time the default value... it was really convenient.
light edition in within DW... heavy coding external....

If you can not set Fireworks or some other external program as the default editor in Dreamweaver preferences > File Types / Editors then I reckon you need to speak with Adobe support, because that should work.

A preference option for setting a default editor needs to be agnostic. What if someone's editor of choice is GIMP, or Paint Shop Pro?
When the CC Libraries are a specific CC feature, only programs knowing how to access that feature will do so.

Makes sense. I would never consider using such a feature, so I simply ignore it. Thank you for the clarification.

I use it to drop common colour definitions to be used in between Adobe programs. But if at any moment one of the programs does not use libraries I need to do it the classical way, noting down definitions an using those. Fireworks is not library aware, so I would not expect it to work with. If it works its great, if not, don’t shoot.

I don't really think this is a specific Dreamweaver issue per-say and it shouldn't have been moved to the Dreamweaver forum because the thread has gone off on a tangent.
It's not the end of the world but as I work in Dreamweaver/Fireworks all day it would have been handy to be able to use the CC Libraries panel in Dreamweaver in that way. Nearest is using open with from inside Adobe Bridge with Fireworks set as the default for image file types.

I'm sorry your question was moved by a moderator. I'm also sorry this discussion went off topic. If you think I should lock this from further discussion, I will.

I'm really sorry you felt the need to attack me personally. Despite what you think, it does make you look worse. It really does. But I'm not here to police. I'll leave that to others. And I do hope that your little hissy fit does not lead anyone to think that I was attacking Nancy, because nothing could be further from the truth. It is obvious I misread your issue and that Nancy read it correctly. My remark was good-natured.
But I will offer some advice. Take it for what it's worth:
With electronic dialogue, it is sometimes easy to misread attitude and intention. You might want to be mindful of that. And if you ever need to obfuscate or mask your words with asterisks, you might want to reconsider using them in the first place.
You've mistaken my intentions (which were first and foremost to help you). This is really unfortunate.
So, I'll leave this thread to those better adept at policing the forum and bid you adieu.
And I don't really see where you've purchased many of our extensions - at least since you posted a question on our forum 6 years ago. If you have, than you shouldn't throw out the baby with the bathwater... just a thought. And if my hunch is right, and I rubbed you the wrong way, perhaps it would help if you contacted me off forum and got it off your chest. I'm sometimes a lot nicer in real life than I appear online

Its an embarrassment to Adobe that you are given ACP status and think that gives you the right to make smart comments, condescending remarks and generally speak down to people. Quite astonishing given the fact you didn't even read my original post properly!
FYI We have purchased quite a few of your extensions but as Dreamweaver adopted Bootstrap we've decided to start using Bootstrap framework quite a few years ago, so there's no need any more to use your extensions or buy new ones from you either. What I'm going to do is visit your Product re-download page on your website and forward the emails I receive to you, so you can see for yourself. OK Mr Smarty Pants With A Superiority Complex !!!! All good then, next time try reading posts properly before wading in with your smart comments ... People in glass houses and all that ....
