    Snippets not showing

    DJoel1226 Community Member

      I just recently replaced my computer and I'm trying to display my library of snippets in Homesite but the only snippets that show are the Dreamweaver Snippets.  I've copied my snippets from my old computer into the following location on my new computer:  C:\Program Files\Macromedia\Homesite+\UserData\Snippets.  The Folder for Snippets in Homesite > Options > Settings > Locations is set to the same location.  What am I missing?

          Same thing here - they are no longer "docked" in the pane on the left. BUT I can access them by clicking on "view/resource windows/snippets" Anyone know how to get them docked again?

            Right-click in a blank area of the undocked snippets window and select 'Move Snippets to > Top/Bottom/Left/Right'.

              Hi that does not work for me - I can dock all other resource windows.

              When I right click on snippets I have no option for docking it - I have right clicked in every possible location.


              This has only been the last month or so that this behavior  has happenned. I am thinking I might need to uninstall and reinstall homesite.

              One day all docked resources wers undocked... I was able to re-dock all other resource windows... just not snippets.

               

              But thanks!

               

              Oh how I wish this application would be revived!

                I found that if you modify your registry settings that you will be able

                to re-dock the snippets.

                 

                BACK UP YOUR REGISTRY BEFORE ATTEMPING THIS!!!!

                 

                I have had the same issue and found that this is the only tab that has no clear cut way of docking in Homesite.

                 

                I looked at the registry and compared it to the tabs and here is what I came up with:

                 

                Path = HKEY_CURRENT_USER>Software>Macromedia>Homesite+>Docking>frmDockSnippets

                 

                Here is what should be in there:

                (Default)               REG_Z     (value not set)

                AlwaysOnTop       REG_Z     1

                DockHost             REG_Z     AllaireTabDockForm0

                DockTab              REG_Z     0

                Floating               REG_Z      0

                PageIndex           REG_Z          5 (note this has to be a number not already in use, be sure to check your other tabs and then use the next available)

                Position               REG_Z      0,0,434,979 (note all tabs will have the same value, depending on your set up my numbers may or may not match yours                                                       but  be sure to check the other tabs and use those values)

                Visible                REG_Z     1

                 

                I hope this helps, I could not find an answer anywhere and found that this worked for me.
