Designing and prototyping Flex applications using Fireworks. When you work with a team on a project, one of the main things to strive for is clear communication.
Anything you can do to facilitate understanding and eliminate confusion will ultimately lead toward a more successful and stress-free release. In this section, I'll describe how you can include annotations to supplement the design elements that you deliver to the developers that will be interpreting your screens and building out the functionality. Exporting images In addition to designing the interface, Fireworks can be used to create documentation that supports the designs you'll hand off to developers. - Library - Axure and Visual Design.

In the following four short video presentations, I demonstrate how to use Adobe Fireworks CS4 for information and interaction design and creating interactive prototypes quickly, and how you can use Fireworks as a design tool that fits into your complete design process, from concept to development.
Before creating an interactive prototype, you need to create effective wireframes that define the structure and organization of each page and include representative content. Fireworks CS4 allows you to build all of your pages in a single document by creating structured layout patterns with grids and guides. Fireworks includes reusable symbols for common user interface components, too—such as buttons, check boxes, and combo-boxes—so you can focus on crafting strong designs rather than drawing and recreating individual interface components every time. The design tools in Adobe Creative Suite 4 work well together for the entire design process.
