New Features
What's new in Fireworks CS6
- Clean CSS code extraction from designs and web pages - 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.
- Improved CSS support - extract CSS code with the Properties panel and create CSS sprites from design comps. Mock up complete web pages and export layouts with external style sheets in one step.
- New jQuery Mobile theme skinning support - create, modify, or update jQuery themes for mobile websites and apps, including CSS sprite images.
- Quicker access to color - 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.
- Improved performance - 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.
- API access - Access the API to generate extensions. Benefit from community-driven extensions.
