Hello,
Early on the first day of this mailing list I sent an email about my first impressions, both positive and negative, which generated a few responses, including one from Allen I believe. That said I want to highlight what for me, as an HTML coder, is the only major downfall that has not been spoken about extensively:
Dragging an image from the project pane into a HTML file should add something like <img src="eric.jpg" alt="eric" width="100" height="100" /> and not the actual source code of an image at the insertion point.
Now I have seen a few requests that suggest highlighting an image in the project drawer should display the graphic file instead of the code and I agree, however this is not the major hurdle in my book. We need to be able to grab a file from the drawer and pull it into our html code and have the correct width and height added automatically.
I have been letting this subject percolate for a few days in my head and I just can not think of another workaround that would approach any reasonable level of efficiency (I would love to hear some though). I could make a macro and have it tab stop at the name, width, height and alt however I am not going to know the width and height in 99% of the cases. I personally would also like to have it automatically add the file name without the extension as the alt tag though some might argue that this will promote poor coding practices, I tend to label my files with readable names...
Please take care of this ASAP...
Sincerely,
Eric Curtis
