Graphics are handled in much the same easy-to-use manner. Select the image or its placeholder to enable
the Image Property inspector. From there, you can modify any available attributes, including the image??™s
source, its width or height, and its alignment on the page. Many simple graphic functions??”such as cropping
and rescaling??”can be handled right from within Dreamweaver. Need to touch up your image more
precisely? Send it to your favorite graphics program with just a click of the Edit button.
You learn all about adding and modifying images in Chapter 9.
Enhanced table capabilities
Other features??”standard, yet more advanced??”are similarly straightforward in Dreamweaver. Tables
remain a key component in today??™s Web pages, and Dreamweaver gives you full control over all their functionality.
It changes the work of resizing the column or row of a table, previously a dreary hand-coding task,
into an easy click-and-drag motion. Likewise, you can delete all the width and height values from a table
with the click of a button. The Table Property inspector centralizes many of these options in Dreamweaver.
The nitty-gritty of table editing is often tedious and tricky: Grabbing just the right selection in a tightly formatted
table row is meticulous work.
