To eliminate that thick blue container line (which equates to no hyperlinks working within container) that just won't go away try selecting the container, select text, click in container, ctrl a, ctrl c, click inside the container, then outside the container (changes the thick blue container line to a thin line) , and once again outside the container to return all containers to dotted line outline. We recommend you save your work every successful step along the way. That way when something doesn't look right or vanishes you can close don't save and reopen the most recent saved version.
or those of you that have been following Chef LeeZ tested use of Google Web Designer GWD WYSIWYG cross platform HTML 5 you can now see how we have decided to use GWD.
To those of you just joining the conversation. The following is a summary, more details are in separately titled blogs.
Chef LeeZ is after a KISS (keep it simple stupid) a no bulchat, user friendly, fast to download, cross platform functional including 3G (21 mps modem) mobile phones users site. Chef LeeZ GWD site demonstrates this as the text downloads immediately and can be played with while waiting for the header pictures to download which downloads in an acceptable time frame.
In a nut shell here's what our learning GWD WYSIWYG has found applicable:
1) We proved you can incorporate a GWD interstitial page or Ad (IP). That portion of the otherwise HTML page does not function in harmony with the balance of teh HTML text page which only matters when viewing the site on mobile phone size devices. More specifically the "IP" didn't always shrink to the phone device. When enlarged it wouldn't go back to shrunk. When scrolling text the text slide under the "IP". So simply put ChefLeeZ waits to hear of the fix for this before incorporating already designed "IP" into our future GWD sites.
2) When "IP" was used as its own index (Home) page it had all the re-sizing problems aforementioned otherwise it performed just fine as a home page.
3) Animation has to load before pages load, So no animation until phone internet 3G speed (21Mbs) increases to at least that of wifi (54Mbs). Chef LeeZ recruited Kruzon to do these studies. Kruzon GWD website sports a HTML page with GWD automated animation.
4) Tests on this, our January 12 2014 site version, were built with a site content container 600 px wide with a left start of 200 px which left 200 px (2 inches) of white space to the left of the site page and 100 px+ to the right of the container which suggests we can safely increase all aspects of our site by 20% to 30% filling the whole page.
We do recommend you read our previous posts before taking on GWD for a full drive as it is believed it will save you a lot of learning curve time and provide you with proven work a-rounds as editing really sucks in this early beta version of GWD.
Happy WYSiWYGn 2014!
