Complete custom environment
Dreamweaver enables you to customize your workspace to suit yourself. Much of Dreamweaver’s
power derives from the various windows, panels, and inspectors, all of which are movable. Just drag
them wherever you want them onscreen or keep them docked to the side. You can even iconify them
to maximize your screen real estate. Want to see your page by itself? You can hide all windows at
the touch of a function button; press it again, and your controls are revealed. Got your working envi-
ronment just the way you like it? Create a custom workspace and reset it at any time with a simple
menu selection from the Workspace Switcher.
Dreamweaver’s customization capabilities extend even further. If you find that you are repeatedly
inserting something, such as a QuickTime video or WAV sound file, you can add that element to
your Insert panel. Dreamweaver even enables you to add a specific element—a Home button, for
example—to the Insert panel. In fact, you can add entire categories of objects if you like. Moreover,
Dreamweaver CS4 exposes the entire menu structure for customization—not only can you change
keyboard shortcuts, you can also add custom menus.
For more information about customizing your Insert panel, see Chapter 33.
