You can use launch-and-edit integration to edit images in a HomeSite document. HomeSite automatically starts Fireworks, letting you make the desired edits to the image. When you exit Fireworks, the updates you made are automatically applied to the placed image in HomeSite. Together, the two applications provide a streamlined workflow for editing web graphics in HTML pages.

To open and edit Fireworks images placed in HomeSite:

  1. In HomeSite, save your document.
  2. Do one of the following:
    • Right-click the image file on one of the Files tabs in the Resources window.
    • Right-click the image on the Thumbnails tab of the Results window.
    • Right-click the associated img tag in the HTML code on the Edit tab of the Document window.
  3. Select Edit in Adobe Fireworks from the pop-up menu.

    HomeSite starts Fireworks, if it is not already open.

  4. If prompted, specify whether to locate a Fireworks source file for the placed image. For more information on Fireworks source PNG files, see Fireworks Help.
  5. In Fireworks, edit the image.

    The Document window indicates that you are editing a Fireworks image from another application.

  6. When you are finished making edits, click Done in the Document window.

    The updated image is exported back to HomeSite, and the PNG source file is saved if a source file was selected.
