Dreamweaver Tip: How to Change the Font Size in Dreamweaver’s Code View.

With CSS being so prominent these days, many designers are seeing a lot more code . A lot more then they were ever used to. Sure, Dreamweaver’s Code or Split views are cool, but all they show is…well… code.

Seeing code is bad enough for designers, but having to squint at it because the code is way too small, make life just not that pleasant anymore. For that “too small” type Dreamweaver has add a cool little feature that enables user to increase the size of the code font and here is how it works:

If you go to Preferences Menu>Fonts>Code View you can increase the size of the font you see in Code view as well as select the font you want to look at. It wouldn’t code for you, but it will sure make coding so much nicer!

   Wow, you’re a life saver…or at least an eyesight saver! I can’t believe I’ve been coding at 7pt for so long and I can’t believe how easy it was to change this.

   Big thank you!
   Cheers
