Customize the file and folder details displayed in the expanded Files panel

When you view a Dreamweaver site in the expanded Files panel, information about the files and folders is displayed in columns. For example, you can see the file type or the date a file was modified.

You can customize the columns by doing any of the following (some operations are only available for columns you add, not default columns):

  • Reorder or realign columns

  • Add new columns (for a maximum of 10 columns)

  • Hide columns (except the filename column)

  • Designate columns to be shared with all users connected to a site

  • Delete columns (custom columns only)

  • Rename columns (custom columns only)

  • Associate columns with a Design Note (custom columns only)

Change the order of the columns

 Select a column name, and then click the up or down arrow button to change the position of the selected column.
Note: You can change the order of any column except Name, which is always the first column.

Add, delete, or change detail columns

  1. Select Site > Manage Sites.
  2. Select a site, then click Edit.
  3. Select File View Columns from the Category list on the left.
  4. Select a column and click the Plus (+) button to add a column, or the Minus (–) button to delete a column.
    Note: The column is deleted immediately and without confirmation, so make certain that you want to delete the column before clicking the Minus (–) button.
  5. In the Column Name box, enter a name for your column.
  6. Select a value from the Associate with Design Note menu, or type in your own.
    Note: You must associate a new column with a Design Note, so that there is data to display in the Files panel.
  7. Select an alignment to determine how text is aligned within the column.
  8. Select or deselect Show to reveal or hide the column.
  9. Select Share with All Users of This Site to share the column with all users connected to the remote site.

Sort by any detail column in the Files panel

 Click the heading for the column you want to sort.
Click the heading again to reverse the order (ascending or descending) by which Dreamweaver sorts the column.
