Naming your Slices

When you export your image to HTML Fireworks exports each slice as a different image. Hence, allowing you to set different optimisation settings for each slice.

To make identifying the exporting images easier you can give a name to each slice and use the slice names as file names when you export the image.

  1. To name a slice select it with the Pointer tool. And type a name for it in the Properties Inspector. e.g:

  2. Name the slices in your image as follows. Do NOT use spaces in the names. Also each name should be unique.

    1) top
    2) left_panel
    3) menu_button
    4) menu_bar
    5) right_panel
    6) top_screen_border
    7) screen
    8) bottom_screen_border
    9) back_button
    10) next_button
    11) bottom
