Exploring the Workspace

To get started using Dreamweaver, you need to become familiar with the interface and the

initial options that are available for your workspace. Windows and Macintosh versions

differ slightly.

Windows Users: If this is your ﬁrst time opening Dreamweaver 8 on a Windows computer,

you will be presented with the option to select one of two workspaces: Designer or Coder.

For this exercise, you should select the Designer workspace because it will be used through-

out this book. The Designer workspace integrates all Dreamweaver-related windows and

panels into an environment that is optimized for visually based Website creation—this

option is ideal for designers. The Coder workspace is tailored for programmers—those

who want to work primarily with HTML and other Web and programming languages.

You can access all Dreamweaver features and tools from either workspace. The workspaces

simply organize the tools into optimized setups.

You can switch from the Designer workspace to the Coder workspace at any time by

choosing Window > Workspace Layout and then selecting your desired workspace.

Macintosh Users: The Designer and Coder workspace options described previously are

not available on the Macintosh. The Macintosh uses a ﬂoating panel system that you can

arrange to achieve the same optimized environment as needed.

Yo u’ll learn more about customizing the Dreamweaver workspace later in this lesson and

throughout the book.
