Hide HTML comments in Dreamweaver 2020?

I'm looking to hide HTML comments in the Dreamweaver code view. Sometimes I will have a lot of comments and I would like to view the code without the comments. I do not want to remove the comments, only temporarily hide them. I'm using Dreamweaver 2020.

Thanks,

Logan

There is nothing built-in to DW that hides comments. You would need to create your own extension for that.

If you have a server side language like PHP, you could do the following

<h1>Fancy display heading</h1>
<?php // This is a remark that will not be shown, ever ?>
<p>A nice paragraph</p>

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

PHP comments don't appear in browsers but they are displayed in DW Code View.
