Would also like to see the return of the slideout directory bar on the left hand side please.


You can still slide it in and out by clicking the little orange arrow key in the top left hand corner just above the My Websites tab.

In the next update Scott is there any chance of adding hspace vspace to the Insert Image dialogue?

The new 'title' tag in addition to the 'alt' tag is appreciated for coding for both FireFox and IE.


Sure, that will not be a problem. I will see if I can get that into one of the next releases.

I know FE. Trouble is it's not easy to insert style tags on the fly and hspace vspace is so easy and effective to use. Unless it's possible to include an inline styling tag into the Insert Image dialogue.

Deprecation goes too far sometimes.

Scott? What I meant was the automatic slideout we used to have that allowed the sidebar to go back when your mouse moved away from it.

For a good year we would have users report a "slowness" with the editor but we could never understand why. We tracked the problem to that slider control. Once we removed it, the problem went away. So for now, we are keeping it out until we can determine what is causing the problem.

You know of problem areas far better than we ever could.

Just downloaded Build 305 which is my first update after buying CoffeeCup a few weeks ago. Do I install over previous version or uninstall it first

Although you should be able to just install the new version directly over the old one, I always suggest uninstalling any previous versions first. If you don't uninstall, then there's always a slight chance that something doesn't get overwritten and the software could act funny.

Have something to add? We’d love to hear it!
