In Visual Studio, I can collapse sections of code with arrows in the left gutter. Is there any way to do that in Dreamweaver?
Apparently Dreamweaver doesn't use code folding by default, but you should get a good idea of how to get that to work from http://forums.adobe.com/thread/226001
Just for anyone else that sees this, this is built into Dreamweaver now.

I am importing a lot of CSS & JS into my app and updating the links as I go. Is there any code inspection possible that will highlight these broken links to make sure I haven't missed any and to save me going through every file?
I know in other IDE's this is a standard thing so I am guessing there should be something in VS but I can't find it.
I'm afraid that it's not possible in pure Visual Studio.
But there is one trick which you can do using ReSharper which might help you and solve your problem. Take a look below:
What is more - you can configure ReSharper to show those "Path errors" not as warning but as errors! Then you will be able to show those during compilation.
Click "ReSharper" in the Visual Studio top menu, then "Options..."
There will be search box in the left upper corner of the "Options" window
Type "Path error" and hit return
Change all of the "Warning" to "Error"
There are a number of sites/tools as listed here that will check anchor links, css links, image links, JavaScript links, etc:
W3C Link Checker
Xenu's Link Slueth
Link Checker FireFox AddOn
Dead Link Checker
I have only ever used the W3C checker which seems to work quite well.
Im just wondering what you use to get the vertical visualisation lines between XAML open and close tags, it makes the XMALso much easier to read.
I cant find a better place to ask this but im sure there might be, sorry if its broken the rules.
Do you mean the Visual Studio extension called "Indent Guides": https://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/e792686d-542b-474a-8c55-630980e72c30 ?
It puts little guides in your VS2013 (and perhaps 2012) that show indents in the XAML editor. If you didn't mean that, I'd still recommend a look as it makes things a lot easier to read!
I want to open The Modify Style dialog box
Someone may know if this moved ?
I have try View->Toolbars-> and from here i cannot fine any style option
If you're talking about the Toolbars -> Style Sheet toolbar, it seems to have been removed intentionally:
Thanks for the feedback. The Stylesheet toolbar was removed because it
added little to no value with outdated wizards and dialogs. We're
looking at bringing more visual tooling back to CSS in the future, but
in a better way.

Might be worth keeping an eye on this one as well (for further verification, it may get updated):

I am searching for icons/images for my application.. especially for the menu and toolbar..
i am looking for the following icons/images (16x16 if possible):
1. comment
2. uncomment
this icons can be found in the IDE of Visual Studio (comment/uncomment lines)
I am asking this because for some reason I couldn't find any of this icons in the "VS2010ImageLibrary" which ships with Visual Studio 2010
Thanks in advance,
Din
Those icons are probably copy right protected, a much better option would be to use a Royalty-Free image site like www.istockphoto.com
That way you can't get sued.
In the time you spent looking for those icons, you could have easily rolled your own! Those two icons are mostly a bunch of straight lines.
You could make your own icons that also make even more sense that Microsoft's. For example:

How do I customize, extend the text editor, or color tag parts of my code?
I would like Visual Studio to color code parts of my code. Can I use #region and give it a color?
Is there any way to make the background between two parentheses have a different color? (I want each code "block" to have its own color.)
I've looked here for some insight, but they all are implemented based "on what you select". All I want is to have the text editor "render" the text in a different way based on some rules.
I haven't seen such feature, but there is something quite close to what you are looking for in ReSharper. A setting called "Highlight matching delimiters". Looks like this in use:
I wanted tell you this because
1) You might be interested in resharper and
2) resharper is able to do the highlighting so maybe someone can make an add-in or something to add this kind of feature. Maybe you? :)
I don't know of anything exactly like what you're asking for, but the VS10x Code Map extention might help: http://www.axtools.com/products-vs2010-extensions.php
It will give you a nice overview of the code on the side, and make navigation somewhat easier.
The download button on the right lets you download a trial version from the Visual Studio Gallery at msdn.microsoft.com. I think you can also find it directly from the extentions view in VS2010.
