[Sigia-l] Wireframe/Prototyping tools (was RE:Intelligentsigns atMicrosof t)

[Laurie Gray]

The only thing I should note - and it's not a problem for me, is that
the HTML is "dirty" - our developers are not able to reuse it in any
way. It looks like it's done with images and javascripting and as
others have noted, it works well. The word document formatting is not
bad - I wish I could have a bit more control over the format prior to
output, but it's just as easy to do after the document is generated. I
did play around with having it export using a particular template, but
never got that working quite right. Then again, I am not a Word whiz -
my sessions with it typically tend to degenerate into a bunch of blue
language...

I think that the new features added in 4.2 are great, although I have
only played around with them - I haven't used them for a project yet.

If you create custom templates in Visio, the library capabilities in
Axure will make a lot of sense to you, and will help you to save time.
I'm trying to figure out if I should re-create our entire pattern
library in Axure, thereby making my screen designs drag and drop - and
pretty much fully spec'ed. It'll be labor intensive up front, but make
life much easier later on.

And, I totally agree on Victor's responsiveness. He's been very
helpful any time we have contacted him.

Hi David,

I've used Axure for a few months now (having wireframed in Visio for a
few years), and I have to agree with everything you have said, with the
following additional comments:
