and your image appears at your current cursor position. After your graphic is onscreen, selecting it brings
up the appropriate Property inspector to enable you to make modifications. The same technique works for
tags to Shockwave movies.
Accessing and managing resources
One standout addition to Dreamweaver??™s interface is the Assets panel, shown in Figure 2-8. The Assets
panel gathers all the various elements used in an individual site: images, background and text colors,
external URLs, included scripts, Flash movies, Shockwave content, and QuickTime media, as well as
Dreamweaver templates and library items. Sizeable thumbnails of graphics and media are displayed in the
preview pane of the Assets panel??”you can even play Flash, Shockwave, and QuickTime elements in preview
before dragging them onto the page. Moreover, often-used resources can be listed in a Favorites category,
distinguishing them from the rest of the assets found in the site.

Complete custom environment
Dreamweaver enables you to customize your workspace to suit yourself. Much of Dreamweaver??™s power
derives from the various windows, panels, and inspectors, all of which are movable.
