Modifying sliced images
Placing sliced images on your Web page couldn’t be simpler, thanks to the Insert Fireworks
HTML command. However, like standard non-sliced graphics, sliced images often need to be
modified. One technique that many designers use is to create a framing graphic that contains
HTML text; in Fireworks, a sliced area designated as a text slice can hold any HTML content.
Text often has to be modified. If it is in a framing graphic, the image may need to be changed
so that the table cells remain the same size as in the original design. This prevents the separate
slices from becoming apparent.
In Dreamweaver, sliced images from Fireworks are recognized as a Fireworks table and can be
modified through a dedicated Property inspector, as shown in Figure 24-13. The Fireworks Table
Property inspector displays the PNG source file and an Edit button for sending the entire table back
to Fireworks for alterations. As with non-sliced graphics, click Done on the document title bar in
Fireworks when your modifications are complete to update the source and exported files. The newly
exported images are then reloaded into Dreamweaver.
