Previewing the images makes it easy to select the proper one,
and then all you need to do is drag it from the Assets panel onto the page.
Before you can use graphics from the Assets panel, you must inventory the site by choosing the Refresh Site
List button, as shown in Figure 9-5. When you click the Refresh button (or choose Refresh Site List from
the context menu on the Assets panel), Dreamweaver examines the current site and creates a list of the
graphics, including their sizes, file types, and full paths. To see an image, just click its name, and a thumbnail
appears in the preview area of the panel.
To increase the size of the thumbnail, make the preview area larger by dragging open the border
between the preview and list areas and/or increasing the size of the entire panel.
Dreamweaver enlarges the size of the thumbnail while maintaining the width:height ratio, so if you just
move the border or resize the panel a little bit, you may not see a significant change. Thumbnails are never
displayed larger than their actual size.
You can insert an image from the Assets panel onto your Web page in two ways:
n Drag the image or the file listing onto the page.
n Place your cursor where you??™d like the image to appear. Select the image in the Assets panel and
then click the Insert button.
