What I am trying to do is have both horizontal and vertical at the same time, sounds like I cannot do this though.

Thanks
Lee

Ok, see what you mean, no problem.

Would be a nice feature, I personally would have it:

Top left: Page Preview
Bottom left: Page Edit
Top right: mockup (a JPG image of the design)
Bottom right: main CSS file

Just got a 27” iMac, trying to make good use of it, I do currently have:

Column 1: Page Preview
Column 2: Page Edit
Column 3: CSS
Column 4: Mockup

Works quite nice.

You can’t actually split the screen horizontally, *then* split one of the panes vertically (or vice-versa) in a compound fashion.

Potentially, what you’re seeing in the screenshot is the way the CSS view is divided in it’s natural state. (with selectors on the left, and rules an the right)

Holding down Option while clicking alternates between horizontal and vertical. Let me know if it doesn’t work.

Can anyone tell me how to split both vertically and horizontally, I can only seem to split either one or the other, i.e. I can’t seem to have a combination of both, as described in the article.

Thanks
Lee

Coda is a good development tool but it lacks ‘project’ support. I never have all the files for a project in one folder … and rarely on one machine or one site. Even something as basic as BBEdit’s project support would be nice.

I agree, Go Live is a lot better than Dreamweaver.
I think adobe should have killed a lot of the macromedia products when then bought macromedia.

The only useful purchase in my opinion was Director / Flash
Dreamweaver is great for ASP, PHP, but go live was so much easier to work in.
It would be nice if Adobe would have kept GoLIve, and turned Dreamweaver into an alternative for Visual Studio (Java, ASP, PHP, ASP.net, Perl, Ruby)

So dreamweaver would be used for coding, and go live for design..
(OR MAYBE BOTH, but with a golive feel)

Anyways it blwos now

—- Coda looks really cool.
Does it do PHP?

GoLive, GoLive, GoLive!!!! A pox on Adobe for killing the best site tool ever written, and for focking it up before they did, rather than nurturing its deep down goodness.
