Creating a layout table underneath text

In Layout view, if you're having trouble creating a layout table underneath the final text in the window, stretch your window downward so there's more space under the final text. Layout tables can't be drawn within half an inch or so below the bottom of the text.

 
Drawing multiple layout cells
In Layout view, by default, the Draw Layout Cell tool becomes inactive after you draw a layout cell. If you want to draw one layout cell after another without having to select Draw Layout Cell each time, hold down the Control key (Windows) or the Command key (Macintosh) as you draw each layout cell.

 
Debugger shortcuts
If you make a change to the code while debugging, you don't need to close the debugger. Just choose File > Debug in Browser (Alt+F12 in Windows, or Option+F12 on the Macintosh) and Dreamweaver will restart the debugging session using the changed code.

 
Refreshing the asset palette
To refresh the Assets panel's Site list, click the Refresh Site List button in the Assets panel. However, refreshing the Site list doesn't reflect any changes to the site that you may have made outside of Dreamweaver. To rebuild the site cache and the Site list to show changes made outside of Dreamweaver, Control-click (Windows) or Command-click (Macintosh) the Refresh Site List button.

 
Adding keyframes to a timeline
To quickly add a keyframe to a timeline, Control-click (Windows) or Command-click (Macintosh) the timeline.

 
Troubleshooting layer animations
Two tips for troubleshooting layer animations:

If you change the height of a layer when a keyframe is selected, you may accidentally animate the height of the layer.
Certain layer animations may have display problems in Internet Explorer 5 on the Macintosh. If you encounter such a problem, resize the layer so that it's taller than its contents.
