Width of Code Generator Display Window

While I'm thinking about it...

Any way the code generator display window can be made wider in the next version?

1/3 of the screen is outside the window and the window always has to be scrolled in order to copy a line of code.

Thanks

Perhaps a function like Select (and copy) Form Element ?

Hi Jerry,

Can you tell me a bit about how you are using it? Do you often need to scroll down and copy a single line?

I usually just select all and copy that so I wanted to know how you do it or how you're using it.

Thanks!

Re: [Dave] Width of Code Generator Display Window

I usually end up mocking up a page, or work converting existing pages, and then copying the appropriate lines of code from the generator into the page code.

I have a dual monitor setup and usually set up the generator view on one monitor and the dreamwaver html view on the other, and work back and forth.

So yes, I find myself needing to sort through the lines of code in the generator view and selectively copy them.

The gemnerator view is always much to narrow and I find that I have to horizontally drag past the end of the window in order to copy a required line of code.

Much easier to work with the wider window.

Thanks again...
