Default Creating new document templates - 11-23-2004 , 12:25 PM






Does anyone know how to edit the list of available documents in the "New
Document" dialog? As well, is it possible to add my own document types and
files to that menu?

Basically I want to replicate a series of CTML files I had in ColdFusion
Studio that would create document frameworks for us.

I've read through the docs but unless I am missing something obvious I can't
see a way to do it

TIA

Did you mean the Edit Document Templates extension?

That isn't really what I want to do. Thanks though

In ColdFusion Studio I could create VTML files and put them in a directory and
then those files would show up as "tempaltes" in the New Document menu. Those
VTML files would them take input from me and create new files for me based on
the input.

As powerful as DW is it seems to lack this ability and since I typically have
to create four or five files for the application framework that we have it is a
pain in the posterior to have to manaully create these each and every time.

I am still looking for a way to automatically create files in DW but haven't
found anything in the docs or online
