Product Manager Utility "8"-pencil sketching

Feel the recent two articles of the log, have a bit of instrumental articles, introduce the software itself. A bit impostors, but instrumental article timeliness will be a little. The next introduction is a plug-in pencil,http://www.aliyun.com/zixun/aggregation/11029.html "> Firefox browser, a plug-in, this plug-in is very small, very practical, the reason for this,

1, because it integrates into the browser, you can not use a large installation package;

2, product managers have a second browser Firefox, so the convenience is not to say more.

3, the operation is relatively simple

In Firefox browser Click pencil-sketching directly open Interactive interface, it is worth mentioning is pencil-sketching is visual operation, so you drag each step directly, input text is basically arbitrary.
4, many people will ask axure not more professional? Pencil sketching have any advantage, why should I use it? This is the question I understand:

1 if the use of the scene grading site requirements or module requirements, with the pencil sketching can easily drag and drop out of the modular prototype interface, wireframe, feel more like on the Whiteboard painting the same.

2 There is another aspect, the prototype level is defined as: conceptual design, low fidelity, Fidelity, high-fidelity, pencil sketching can meet the non-high fidelity, or department of high Fidelity requirements,

3 Think about it, not all products are to ued requirements, so how convenient, how appropriate to come.

5, Visual module components, send a few pictures out to see, general forms, shapes, forms are also very complete.

6, talk about shortcomings, the disadvantage is that your work export is not very good, but a thought, a small plug-in itself to this, the interactive fault-tolerant to do so strong, has been very praise. Therefore, can not be exported as HTML, picture format, but I believe a little bit of knowledge of the friends will not care about this, do demo.

7, below I first use pencil sketching to do a few demo demo, casually patchwork to everyone some feeling, as follows:

8, the interface is still very beautiful, there is no product manager himself to deliberately design the ingredients, anyway is a wireframe, to the visual there will not be output interference. OK, simple to say here, want to use the friend, I tell you a easiest way to install pencil sketching.

9, install pencil sketching method: In the Firefox browser-tools-add-on components, search pencil, find the search results to install the update, and then reset the Firefox browser OK, is not very simple.

Tail Note: Every day a little find, product work is actually very simple. It is not good to use what kind of tool is a good product, but a good product will certainly use its appropriate tool! (>_<) ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Faulty
