Customize Dialog: Source View Tab

The Designer application displays multiple views of site assets. These can include "Source view," "Design view," and "Preview." You can customize the way the code displays in source view by changing the font face, font size, and certain automatic formatting.

Element	Description
Font	Selects the font (from those available on your computer) that is used to display the code in Source view.
Size	Selects the font size that is used to display the code in Source view.
Apply automatic formatting when switching to Source view	Each time you switch to Source view when working on an asset, the code is automatically formatted according to the following choices.
Indent block level tags	Successive block-level tags are indented to make the text easier to read.
Indent Size	Sets the indent size by number of characters.
Place each tag attribute on a new line	Each attribute of a tag appears on a new line. The attributes are indented to the same degree as the tag itself.
Tab size	Identifies the number of characters per tab.
Enable Line Wrapping	Enables line wrapping.
Line Length	Specifies the maximum number of characters per line when you enable line wrapping.
Treat unknown tags as inline elements	Ensures that any unknown tags that Designer encounters are treated as generic inline elements (for example, SPAN) during HTML Tidy actions.
Generate XHTML-compliant markup	Turns existing HTML into XHTML-compliant markup. Consequently, elements in HTML are combined with XML to create a more standards-aware language (for example, closing all HTML tags).
doctype	Adds the specified doctype to the header of the HTML for the web page.
Help	Opens the online help for this specific dialog.
Close	Closes the Customize dialog.
