Constrain Proportions on images

[mondy]

Is there a way to edit images within Dreamweaver 4.0 so that it contrains proportions? As of now, I must bring it in to Photoshop, adjust the size and then insert the new image in Dreamweaver. Am I making more work for myself?

no that is how ur suppsed to do it...
true image has its size and that is the same size it should be presented on the web or else they will be distorted.
However, there is time when image W and H can be usefull when they are &quot;distorted&quot;...
eg. u have a transparent image that u use as a &quot;shim-stopper&quot;.....there is no need to make an image
of 300x300 in this case....u can just make a transparent image of 1x1 px and then use the HTML Propeties to &quot;stretch&quot; it.... ;-)
DW:
click-select the image and in properties tab adjust the W and H as u desire:
<img src=&quot;/image.jpg&quot; width=&quot;200&quot; height=&quot;15&quot;>
IF the W and H are NOT the true image size they will be presented in 'bold' font on your Properties Tab. Click &quot;Reset Size&quot; button to auto adjusts to the true sieze of image (the px size u see in PS)

All the best!

I believe that MX2004 has much better integration with Fireworks which enables image editing without changing interfaces.
