Live view not updating

17.0.1 release. Live view seems to have stopped updating, at least regularly. Sometimes switching back and forth between design and live causes an update, sometimes it doesn't. Often the "refresh live view" menu item is grayed out, and even when it's not, clicking it often seems to make no difference. The attached screen shot clearly shows that the date of the "Book Discussion" shows as 18 March in "live" view but as 15 April in "code" view, and the "refresh" menu item is grayed out.

    I have exactly the same problem. Also weird spacing in code view.

    DW 20.2 15263 Build MacOS Catalina 10.15.5

    I will make a comment that I had this problem with DW 9 years ago. Apparently it's been solve in between but has appeared again. Perhaps looking back at the old solution will shed some light event though I'm sure the code is vastly different?

    Hey Dreamweaver Team,

    Did you get enough info? If you need more info, please explain what more information you need. I think it is all rather clear.

    Occurring on Mac 10.13.6
    Dreamweaver Version 19.2
    11274 Build

    And, yes, the only time it worked, as I remember, was for a short time after the feature's release.

    All things great (awesome) in theory, but super buggy in practice.

    I have just wanted to buy subscription . Unfortunately after one day live code dead. Version 19.1. Now I have to refresh browser to check changes in my Bootstrap project. A bit nonsense to buy now

    I am having the same problem using the latest version of DW. The live view often doesn't update when I change my html code.

    Using Ver. 19 on a Mac. previews just fine in a browser... just not the DW live view. This has been an issue for at least 2 years now.

    How is this STILL an issue after so long? I can switch from split to live and back for text updates, but the cached images do not update. Preferences updated as well
