How to work with Slice

To work with Slice

- Slicing a graphic is as easy as drawing a rectangle. Fireworks has two tools for slicing graphics: Slice tool and Polygon Slice tool.

The objects you have drawn are called Slice Objects. The red lines protruding from the slice objects are slice guides, which determine where Fireworks will split the image into separate files on exporting.

- Slice can optimize each piece of a graphic separately, resulting in smaller, faster-loading files.
