View and Edit File

 

These options set the default applications used for viewing and editing files when there is no assigned windows file association or internal file association to edit or view a file.

 

Custom viewers and editors based on the file type can be set via the File Associations dialog.

 

      Default file viewer /   Browse

This defines the application used when viewing a file. Click the browse button and then select desired application.

Windows file associations and FlashFXP file associations take priority.
 

Internal editor
 

      Default file editor /    Browse
This defines the application used when editing a file. Click the browse button and then select desired application.

Windows file associations and FlashFXP file associations take priority.

       Default action on save

 

(nothing)
When selected, After saving the file nothing will occur.
This allows the user to manually upload the file from the Active Edits dialog.

 

Upload
When selected, the file will be automatically uploaded whenever the local file is modified.

 

Prompt
When selected, The user will be prompted to upload the file when the local file is modified.
 

Legacy Prompt
When selected, The user will be immediately prompted to upload the file, after the user has finished working with the local file they can then click Yes to upload the file.
This feature re-introduces the old legacy style of remote editing found in previous versions of FlashFXP, and is quite limited by design. When using this method remote files are not added to the Active Edits dialog.

 

      Show the active edits window when editing a file
When checked, The active edits window will automatically open when you edit a file. Otherwise you'll need to open the active edits window from the main menu under view.

 

      Remember edit history
When checked, the details of each file edit are saved to disk and restored when re-connected to the site. This does not preserve the local temporary file used for remote editing and the remote file will be downloaded again for the re-edit action.

 

      Include "Edit and Upload" in edit history
When checked, local files edited using the Edit and Upload feature (File List > Right-click menu > Advanced Transfer > Edit and Upload) will be included in the edit history.
