When you select two or more AP elements,
the Property inspector displays text properties and a subset of
the full AP element properties, allowing you to modify several AP
elements at once.
In the Property inspector (Window > Properties),
click the expander arrow in the lower-right corner, if it isn’t
already expanded, to see all properties.
Set any of the following properties for multiple AP elements:
L and T (left and top)
Specify the position of the AP elements’ upper-left corners
relative to the upper-left corner of the page, or of the parent
AP element if nested.
W and H
Specify the width and height of the AP elements.
Note: If
the content of any AP element exceeds the specified size, the bottom
edge of the AP element (as it appears in the Design view in Dreamweaver)
stretches to accommodate the content. (The bottom edge doesn’t stretch
when the AP element appears in a browser, unless the Overflow property
is set to Visible.)
The default unit for position and size
is pixels (px). You can instead specify the following units: pc
(picas), pt (points), in (inches), mm (millimeters), cm (centimeters),
or % (percentage of the parent AP element’s corresponding value).
The abbreviations must follow the value without a space: for example,
3mm indicates 3 millimeters.
Vis
Specifies whether the AP elements are initially visible
or not. Select from the following options:
Default
does not specify a visibility property. When no visibility is specified, most
browsers default to Inherit.
Inherit uses the visibility property of the AP elements’
parent.
Visible displays the AP elements’ contents, regardless of
the parent’s value.
Hidden hides the AP element contents, regardless of the parent’s
value.
Use a scripting language, such as JavaScript, to control
the visibility property and dynamically display AP element contents.
Tag
Specifies the HTML tag used to define the AP elements.
Bg Image
Specifies a background image for the AP elements.
Click
the folder icon to browse to and select an image file.
Bg Color
Specifies a background color for the AP elements. Leave
this option blank to specify a transparent background.
If you entered a value in a text box, press Tab or Enter
(Windows) or Return (Macintosh) to apply the value.
