Previous versions of Dreamweaver CC

[graphicedge]

Well I feel foolish, I just spent two days teaching myself Fluid Grids on Train Simple and it's not available anymore in Dreamweaver 2017.  Are previous versions available to download?

I just do not want to have to learn a whole other way of doing this.

Please don't use legacy Fluid Grid Layouts.  They were a nice idea at the time (2012) but have been removed for a reason.    There are much better methods available now -- Bootstrap or CSS Flexbox for example.

Yep.

1. Open your CC Desktop App

2. Click the Apps tab

3. Scroll down to FIND ADDITIONAL APPS
4. Click the blue link in the FIND ADDITIONAL APPS tab and choose View Previous Versions (on the bottom of the pop up)
5. Click DW's Install icon and choose the version you want

You can have all 5 installed on the same machine under a single subscription at the same time, they just won't run at the same time.

Though LFGLs are gone for a reason, they just weren't really that good.

You're too kind, Jon.  Legacy FGLs had the temperament of a wet cat.

Bad luck fella, youre learning something that was a failed experiment by Adobe. If you do not wish to learn how to build responsive html which is quite simple then you will have to use a framework like Bootstrap which will make your life unnessarily difficult plus you will be playing catch up all the time because Bootstrap does not move as fast as the web develops.

Personally l think your best bet is to spend a couple of days learning Flexbox and some css.

Yeah, learning Bootstrap right now and then, I'll move on to straight responsive.  Actually learning the Fluid Grid stuff is making the Bootstrap stuff easier to understand.  I will also tackle Flexbox.  I have learned so much from doing the tutorials and asking questions on this forum... so to all of you:

THANK YOU, you have been a tremendous help.
