Welcome to GoLive CS2! To kick things off, launch GoLive, and you'll see the Welcome screen, which is similar to the Welcome screens in the other Creative Suite applications. The Welcome screen gives you several easy ways to get started with the software, so let's start at the top and work our way down (Figure 1). Figure 1. The Welcome screen opens when you launch GoLive and helps get you started with common tasks.
There are three important options in the top portion of the Welcome screen: What's New in GoLive, Tutorials, and Cool Extras. Clicking any of these links loads a Web page about that topic in your default Web browser. Clicking the New Document button invokes the New… window where you can create individual pages of various file types, begin an entirely new site, base a site on a template, or choose from a list of Favorites. The New… screen is explained in detail in Tip 14. If you click the Open button in the Welcome screen you'll see a standard Open dialog where you can locate any file GoLive can edit and open the file. If you click and hold the Open icon you'll see a list of the most recently used files in the pull-down menu. This is a really handy shortcut to sites and pages you edit frequently. |
