Fireworks

Just trying to get my head round the point at which you should leave Fireworks to develop in Dreamweaver (sorry, I'm a newbie).I'm working on a flowchart type diagram, where the various boxes will trigger swap images or hyperlinks to other pages.  I am drawing the chart in Fireworks, because it is clearly a lot easier to position things exactly where you want them.  As far as I am concerned, I can achieve all the functionality I need via Fireworks using hotspots and slices, but I keep reading that FW is more of a web prototyping tool, and the code it exports to DW isn't the most robust. I want to use a page layout with a top title, and a left hand nav bar, with changing page content in the remaining space.  I planned to set up the actual site with its page layout in DW, but to export the flowchart, which will be the content of the index page, from FW.  Could someone please explain to me the best practice for moving from prototyping in FW to developing in DW? &n

Hi there! Just bought FW CS4 (Mac) and everything seems fine but... I'm having many odd problems with the new text-engine. It happens when I open CS4-saved documents or just by flipping through the pages in a document. The text moves position - it looks like the text-frame itself is placed away from the original area! This bothers me BIGTIME!! And when it occurs I can't see the real edge around the "moved" text! This takes much of my precious time to fix... Is this a common problem on the Mac version? TIA! /Henriko

Hello, I'm trying to create 3 simple curved arrows that make up a full circle using the arrow tool in Fireworks - although I don't seem to be able to easily curve the arrows. Is this done using a path? Or is there another method that i'm missing? Would really appreciate some help. Many thanks

I'm very new to FW and design. What do I do to make the starburst a link in the header of this page: http://mnprom.com/promstore/? I tried adding a slice, but it didn't work....not sure if I did it right. Thanks so much for your help in advance!

my cursor is shaking so badly that it makes it very difficult to do any work. I recently purchased cs3, and this is the first time I have tried doing this with this version. I really need it to work properly... any ideas? Oh, and I don't seem to be able to launch my old version.
