Hi everybody;

I installed Dreamweaver cc 2018 recently & find out that in address -> Preferences/Code-format there is an option called "Tag Library", & in this library There is collection of ASP.net controls. so logically it must be able to have full intellisense(the word mwe use in visual stuido & I dont know what is equal in adoe products) asp.net controls(with their property) in dream weaver. but When i try to add for example `<asp:Button ID="btn1" runat="server" />`  I must write it all by my hand and there is no intellisensce that help me by guessing or auto completing my control declaring.

I have set the "used in" property for Html,Xml,Html Template,ASP JavaScript, ASP VBScript, ColdFusion, ColdFusion Component, JSP, ASP.Net VB, ASP.Net C#, VBScript, C#, VB & Text to Make it sure that it will apply in my code. but it doesnt effected in my ASP.Net Project.

Now the main Question is : How to make it work in Dreamweaver CC Since it exist in app Core.

by the way I have tow sub Question .

1: is there any way that we could see design view or live view for master files in Dreamweaver CC.

2: Why I can not see the controls I add in my master file in the page that is linked and referenced to the master file in Dreamweaver CC?

Thanks, Heydar

Correct answer pziecina

Unfortunately I didnt get you meaning dear freind. I think there is a misunderstood on my question.

I didnt mean to add some thing new or .... . No.

I am talking about an existing library in DW CC, which is Ok . I didnt want to add some thing new. just want to use exiting one. just this. but I don't know how to use it. how to config it properly,

Again thank you for replying to my question.

I realy realy realy need to do that. it very very very very very important for me. please please please help me on this.


The tag library in Dw for .net, (and any other language) is for how Dw should format the tag, not for how it should display any code hinting.

For an explanation on using the tag library see -

You can add to the tag library, but this function is very limited in what it can do.

Dreamweaver does not support .net controls code completion, (the nearest thing in Dw to intellisense), or the .net framework, even the use of c# is very limited in Dw, the only program i could personally recommend if you wish to code in .net, is Visual Studio.

Thank you so much for reply ;

Well If it doesent support it why it has full library tag of it's controls?!!!
when such control is existed, so the use of it must be availble, is'nt this concept true?!!

Infact I want to activate this tag library for my self.

Unfortunatly that concept is not true.

Dw's code editor is a cut down version of the free open source code editor called Brackets, which is not a fully blown coding environment for any language. What it does contain is only what the contributor(s) of a particular language wished it to contain, which is often out of date and as you have found incomplete.

If incorporating a feature in Brackets was beyond the contributors requirerments, then it is not included.
