Fireworks CS6 / Features

Save time and preserve your design's integrity by cleanly extracting CSS elements and values (such as color, font, gradient, and corner radius) using the new CSS Properties panel. Once you have the code, copy and paste it directly into Adobe Dreamweaver® CS6 software or other HTML editors.

Create, modify, or update jQuery themes for mobile websites and apps, including CSS sprite images.

Easily create CSS sprites from design comps. Mock up complete web pages and export layouts with external style sheets in one step.

Design interactive layouts for websites and mobile apps without writing code. Export multipage, clickable comps as CSS3-based layouts.

Work smarter in a responsive environment with faster redraw in Mac OS. Improved memory management supports files up to four times larger on 64-bit Windows® systems.

Quickly switch between solid, gradient, and pattern color effects. Apply opacity control separately to Fill and Stroke dialog boxes to achieve better control and precision. Change colors more quickly with the improved color swatch.

Import and export to Photoshop and Illustrator while maintaining design fidelity. Copy and Paste from Fireworks to Dreamweaver. Work faster thanks to tight integration with other Adobe solutions.

Design complete web pages in a robust graphic environment, and then export standards-compliant, CSS-based layouts — with external style sheets — in one step.

Save development time with batch processing. Create commands in the History panel. Hand-code using JavaScript. Create assets and quickly optimize them for multiple projects.

Access the API to generate extensions. Benefit from community-driven extensions.

New symbols for iPhone, Windows Phone 7 and other popular platforms, as well as updated templates can help boost your design workflow.

Keep designs crisp on destination screens with advanced rendering. Vector and bitmap objects appear sharper, even when converted from one mode to the other.

Add layers, graphics, and other web elements to master pages to have them appear automatically on multiple pages throughout your project.

Match colors precisely with designs from other Adobe graphics software via Adobe Swatch Exchange (ASE). Import an ASE file from Photoshop, Illustrator, or Adobe Kuler® software.
