I can't make my Dreamweaver CS6 to load sass (SCSS) files as css (it won't color it).
It was working fine on CS5.5 version. Now I have fresh DW CS6 with all updates (12.0.3) and I have modified all needed files.
Instruction is here or here.
DW still won't apply coloring to my code and when (while open scss file) I go to preferences --> code coloring, Document type highlighted is Text.
Any ideas? Maybe there are another files in CS6 I have to modify?
I found the solution. In CS6 in addition to the files listed in both tutorial (linked in the question), there is one more file that needs to be changed.
It's MMDocumentTypes.xml located in AppData files here:
C:\Users{username}\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS6\en_US\Configuration\DocumentTypes
I had the same issue with Dreamweaver CS6.
I had to update the files in my hidden Library folder
First enable finder to show hidden files.
Open a terminal and paste the following:
defaults write com.apple.Finder AppleShowAllFiles YES
Restart Terminal:
Keep “Alt” key pressed, put mouse over “Finder icon” – your app bar and “right click”. A menu appear and click on “Relaunch”
Open Finder and go to “your folder”
Go to (open folder by folder) Library. Application Support, Adobe, Dreamweaver CS6, en_US,
Configuration
Edit the Extentions.txt and DocumentTypes/MMDocumentTypes.xml files there.
Restart Dreamweaver and you should be good to go.
Update your terminal to hide hidden files
defaults write com.apple.Finder AppleShowAllFiles NO

I downloaded and modified a style file and placed it in the Notepad++ themes folder. I was able to select it and have it update the style as expected. I then went to Settings -> Style Configurator and changed the font of COMMENT of language VHDL to MS Gothic, hit save, and closed and exited Notepad++. I am able to relaunch Notepad++ and still see the change (I'm running Notepad++ in admin mode on Win7).
The only file that I can see a new timestamp on is my XML theme file, but I don't see MS Gothic anywhere in the file. Where is this information being stored? It is overriding the settings from my theme file. I also checked %APPDATA%\Notepad++\stylers.xml but I don't see it there either.
I realize I can change it back through the GUI, but I'd like to know how to get back to my original theme without selecting every style in the language manually (as I've made multiple changes). If I could edit (or delete) a file, I would prefer it.
Look in your %APPDATA%\Notepad++ folder, specifically for the stylers.xml file.
Uninstall Notepad++
Reinstall it again, but this time check the first box, the one that says "Don't use %APPDATA%..... "
Enjoy.
The reason is that Notepad++ install all the files at administrator profile, if you are using another user then you are screw, it will not work properly, you have to run it always as an administrator so it can work properly. To avoid this, just do as i said.
If files are going to APPDATA, then you can create a folder called "themes" and then inside that place your new xml themes. Then close and reopen notepad++ and you should see your new style in the "Select theme:" drop down. Whatever you named the file should be what appears in the dropdown
If you are on Windows 10 the path to add the new theme is :
C:\Users\NAME-OF-COMPUTER\AppData\Roaming\Notepad++\themes
stylers.xml is located one director/ folder above the themes :
Just as a complement to the other answers, if you made the changes on another theme than the default theme (stylers.xml) then your changes are saved to
%APPDATA%\Notepad++\themes\TheThemeYouModified.xml.
For example, if you modified the choco theme, then look for the %APPDATA%\Notepad++\themes\choco.xml.
You will also find a choco.xml in the C:\Program Files (x86)\Notepad++\themes but this one is not where your changes are saved.
I tried Rbastardo answer, but even when I check "Don't use %APPDATA%....." when installing Notepad++, the changes are still saved in %APPDATA%.
In case this helps someone in the future, if you installed Notepad++ via Scoop then look for your themes directory here:
D:\Users\yourusername\scoop\persist\notepadplusplus\themes
Running Dreamweaver CS5.5, recently opened files are not being stored in the recent file list menu (File --> Open Recent) on my installation of Dreamweaver. Is there a setting I can enable to turn this on?
I found the answer. I had the same problem and dreamweaver tells me to clear my browser history in preferences and add a new browser. This didn't work. But this video will clear it up. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HRB3fvASnCM except that in this video he suggests deleting the file, because he wants to clear his history.
If you need to rebuild your file. Go into the preferences he talks about, scroll down until you find the command and take out all the junk, just leaving the safari (or Explorer) commands. Dreamweaver will start building your `recently open' files.
I have read this post, but the process is not clear, I don't find the CodeColoring folder.
So, how to reset code color scheme to default in Dreamweaver CS5 (Windows)?
The original folder referred to in that link is located at:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CS5\configuration (64 bit OS)
or
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CS5\configuration (32 bit OS)
Copy the "CodeColoring" folder there and paste it here:
C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS5\en_US\Configuration
That will reset DW to default code coloring. Alternately you can rename the User Configuration folder to Configuration.old and DW will rebuild it on next launch and reset all preferences to default...
I created a Dreamweaver color theme editor, you can use it to restore the default theme, or create your own theme starting with the default theme or a dark theme I made that's designed to make it easy to transition to a dark theme.
You can edit 18 different colors, and then you can download an xml file that replaces the current one. It takes care of all the redundant color settings. It also has instructions for how to install the theme. Super easy.

I found a way to get Dreamweaver CC to colorize Coldfusion Coding:
c:\system...
user...
attuid file...
AppDate...
Roaming...
Adobe...
Dreamweaver CS5.5 or Dreamweaver CS6...
en_US...
Configuration...
ColorCoding...
Color.xml...
open in text editor...
Copy this block...
colorGroup doctypes="ColdFusion"..../colorGroup doctypes="ColdFusion"
and
colorGroup doctypes="CSS" .... /colorGroup doctypes="CSS"
Paste to
c:\system...
user...
attuid file...
AppDate...
Roaming...
Adobe...
Dreamweaver CC 2014...
en_US...
Configuration...
ColorCoding...
Color.xml...
we will have to maintain colorizing coldfusion code tags in
Dreamweaver CS5.5 or CS6 and copy/paste the code blocks up into CC 2014
How can I configure DW so that files with extension .less are edited with zen-coding?
I can use within the zencoding notepad + + on windows normally. But now I want to use the same way inside DW.
Edit (Dreamweaver on Mac) -> Preferences, File Types/Editors
Click the plus (+) button on the left-hand list. Enter ".less" without quotes. With the .less entry selected, click the plus (+) button on the right-hand list, browse to and select the application that you want to open .less files with. Then click OK to apply the changes. Then double click a .less file in the files panel and it will open up with the specified application.
Re-reading the question, I can see that maybe it is ambiguously asking how to add .less files as an editable file type so that Dreamweaver can edit the file. If so, then follow the steps in this Adobe technote:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/164/tn_16410.html
You will need to search for the configuration configuration folder of the version of your dreamweaver. For example: if you are using version CS6, "c:\users[computer name]\appdata\roaming\adobe\dreamweaver cs6\en-us\configuration\menus\menus.xml"
You will now need to open the menu.xml file using either notepad or wordpad or any text editor then search for zencoding

Save the file and restart your dreamweaver.

I hope this works for you.
I have this weird problem. I have an icon in my C++ project's resource section, and it tells me it's "res\icon123.ico". I make some changes to this icon and save/rebuild... and while the resource editor shows the new version, the .ico file in Explorer has not changed.
How is VS storing my changes and why won't it let me do what I want?
Individual .ico files can contain multiple copies of the icon, in different resolutions and color depths. You are probably editing one, while Explorer is showing a different one. Look for the resolution selection dropdown in Visual Studio to change which resolution you're editing.
I've had the same problem, and it has nothing to do with different icon formats in the file - you can entirely replace the .ico file and you'll still have this problem. My solution was to completely remove all the extra files built by Visual Studio like the .aps and .suo files. I'm not exactly sure which one caches the icon.
