fireworks

A collection of free productivity-enhancing extensions that I've built for Adobe Fireworks using JavaScript, ActionScript and Flex. The most recent ones include:

  • Dynamic Symbols (2013-06-01)

    Creating the JavaScript code for a rich symbol is a tedious process, even if you're familiar with JS. Each time you make a change, you need to refresh the Common Library panel, reopen the folder that contains the symbol, drag another instance of the symbol into your document and then test it. You also end up with a lot of repetitive code to set the default symbol properties and to respond to changes to them. The Dynamic Symbols panel makes creating rich symbols much simpler and more efficient. more...

  • Generate Web Assets (2013-05-30)

    While you can easily export slices from a mockup, it's a pain to create an individual slice for each element that you want to export. And if the elements overlap, the slices won't output cleanly. The Generate Web Assets command makes exporting different parts of your document a breeze. more...

  • Text Variables (2013-05-15)

    The Text Variables extension enables you to include variables in text elements that can then be automatically updated. This makes it possible to easily update a text label that displays, say, the current name of the page it's on, or the name of a product you're designing. The extension can update just the selected elements or every text variable in the document. more...
