Fireworks mx2004--auto Shape Preview
Today Macromedia officially released the MX2004 version of the software, the trial version also began to provide downloads.
Preliminary trial, basic and the original introduction of similar, the new function is not a lot, it is not worth dozens of dollars to upgrade.
There are several features to say:
1, Replace Color tool: Feel like a 4.0 version of the Eraser tool version, using the specified color, the specified color approximation, the specified size to erase the specified color (good around the mouth ~ ~), but only 4.0 use the background color or foreground colors to erase.
2, Chinese support: It is now very convenient to enter the document directly in Chinese. The text editing window basically doesn't need to be. In addition, the customizable anti-aliasing effect is also very good.
3, the existing problem: Extension Manager cannot find fireworks MX2004, can not install external plug-ins. Can only be installed manually.
4, the main say the automatic modelling tool:
Basically is satisfied, is a Macromedia to expand its vector modelling another way, in the existing AutoShape modelling tool, by changing the position of control point, already can create very rich vector object. Each AutoShape is a group of objects, the object group will be scattered after the loss of the original control attributes. You can use the child selection tool to control each object in an object group individually, such as changing individual colors, while the properties of an entire group of objects do not change. In my opinion, the modelling in the network application should not have too many needs, the existing function is already very good. The only problem is that AutoShape is an extended feature, adding new styling needs to be developed, and each Auto Shape is controlled by a JSF file, respectively, under its respective/auto shapes/and/auto shape tools/directory.
5, other things ... Dynamic blur? The Attunement line? There is nothing to attract me ... Don't mention it!
