I'm *really* trying to like Dreamweaver. I do like it's CSS rendering much better, and, again, the Spry tools are really, really cool.
However, I'm getting very frustrated by so many bugs!
No only have I sent in many Crash Reports (read: it crashes a lot), but there are so many loose ends. For example:
In code view, whenever I type Shift-I, it pastes in whatever is on the clipboard. I use capital I a lot when coding (e.g., Lasso Inlines), and I like capitalizing it as part of my coding standard.
So, I went under Keyboard Shortcuts to find out if Shift-I was somehow mapped to Paste. After the shortcuts load up, nothing displays at all in the dialog box. I had to export the shortcuts to html to see them.
And what's with the .htm suffix on everything? Even when I set New Document in preference to end in .html, there are so many files created by DW with a .htm default. The preference for file endings should prevail throughout the program. I don't want my html files ending in .htm!
I don't know how to work around the Shift-I problem. I'm figuring out most other workarounds, but besides Spry, the only thing keeping me trying is the fact that I fear GL will be no more before long.
Just like Windows' popularity surprises me when the Mac works so much better, I cannot understand how DW became the dominant WYSIWYG editor when GL works so much more elegantly.
