I just saw the video about the new dialogue to edit the code in the HTML element.

Kudos to CC for this. I’m looking forward to using it!

Totally agree, Great feature.
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

Call me stupid if you want but what's the difference between the new HTML thingy dialogue and doing the code in say notepad, or any other editor and then simply copy and paste that code into the HTML element section on the page? like we have been doing since the beginning of the CC universe

Not only do we not need another editor, but if you want to edit what is already in the html element, you can see it much easier working in the larger window.

It does a lot more than edit code in HTML elements. In the Resources box one can select one's custom CSS files and edit them within the program, and similarly one's JavaScript files or any text file. By setting the font size to 24px I find that using the code editor in the page manager makes things a whole lot easier - on my screen the text of many items within the program seemed pretty tiny.

As to its use in HTML elements, it makes editing (as contrasted with initial entry) much quicker. Previously one would select, copy and paste from the HTML box to (say) Notepad++, do the editing, and then copy and paste back to the HTML box. It's now just a click of the Edit Code button. I use HTML elements quite a lot for text (because of the need for special characters and inline links to named iframes), and so I find the new Code Editor a brilliant addition to the program.
