None

Original asset modified

The original Photoshop file has been modified after the creation of the web image in Dreamweaver.

Use the Update From Original button in the Property inspector to sync the two images.

Dimensions of web image are different from selected HTML width and height

The width and height attributes in the HTML code are different from the width and height dimensions of the web image that Dreamweaver created upon insertion. If the web image’s dimensions are smaller than the selected HTML width and height values, the web image can appear pixelated.

Use the Update From Original button in the Property inspector to re-create the web image from the original Photoshop file. Dreamweaver uses the currently specified HTML width and height dimensions when it re-creates the image.

Dimensions of original asset are too small for selected HTML width and height

The width and height attributes in the HTML code are larger than the width and height dimensions of the original Photoshop file. The web image can appear pixelated.

Don’t create web images with dimensions larger than the dimensions of the original Photoshop file.

Original asset not found

Dreamweaver cannot find the original Photoshop file specified in the Original text box of the Property inspector.

Correct the file path in the Original text box of the Property inspector, or move the Photoshop file to the location that’s currently specified.
