Page Commands

The commands in this extension are intended to perform some common tasks when working with pages in Fireworks CS3. Some of the commands, like "Delete" and "Rename", replicate existing functionality but are useful if you want to assign a keyboard shortcut to that feature. Like the existing menu item, the "Duplicate" command duplicates the current page, but inserts it after the current page, names it the same as the current page, and then navigates to it.

The "Distribute Frames to Pages" command moves the content from each frame in a document to a new page, named the same as the frame. Note that the command will not run if the document contains sub-layers.

The "Import Files into Pages" command is useful for combining several existing files as pages in a new document. When the command is run, it displays a dialog in which you can select the files you want to combine. Select one or more PNG files and click OK. A new document will be created and each file will be imported into a new page that has the same dimensions as the original file. Note that because Fireworks requires layer names to be unique across pages, the layers from the source files may be renamed.

The "Apply Export Settings to All Pages" command takes the export settings on the current page and applies them to all pages in the document.

The "Go to 1", "Go to 2", etc. commands are useful for creating keyboard shortcuts to jump directly to the first through tenth pages. "Go to First" jumps to the first page in the document, and "Go to Last" jumps to the last.
