  1. Adobe Fireworks CS3 Revealed CHAPTER THREE: IMPORTING, SELECTING, AND MODIFYING GRAPHICS

  2. Chapter 3 Lessons Work with imported files Work with bitmap selection tools Learn about selection areas Select areas based on color 2 Fireworks Chapter 3

  3. Understanding Importing Can import many different file types Can select areas of pixels using different tools Can manipulate pixel selection Can flatten or merge objects and layers to reduce file size 3 Fireworks Chapter 3

  4. Lesson 1 Work with Imported Files In this lesson, you will: Import graphics with different file formats into a Fireworks document 4 Fireworks Chapter 3

  5. Lesson 1 Considerations for Importing Files Importing several images can increase file size 5 Fireworks Chapter 3

  6. Lesson 1 Using Different File Formats Copying and pasting Places image on Clipboard: consumes resources Dragging and dropping Does not place image on Clipboard: saves resources 6 Fireworks Chapter 3

  7. Lesson 1 Using Different File Formats Can determine how Photoshop files import Import tab of Preferences dialog box Can determine how vector objects import Vector File Options dialog box 7 Fireworks Chapter 3

  8. Figure 2 and Figure 3 Figure 2: Import tab in Preferences dialog box Figure 3: Vector File Options dialog box 8 Fireworks Chapter 3

  9. Lesson 2 Work with Bitmap Selection Tools In this lesson, you will: Use the marquee tools to select and change pixels in an image 9 Fireworks Chapter 3

  10. Lesson 2 Understanding Pixel Selection Tools Marquee selection: flashing perimeter around selected pixels Often called “marching ants” Selection is temporary but can manipulate pixels 10 Fireworks Chapter 3

  11. Lesson 2 Understanding Pixel Selection Tools Bitmap Via Copy: copies and pastes selected pixels Bitmap Via Cut: cuts and pastes selected pixels Both commands paste selected pixels as new object on active layer 11 Fireworks Chapter 3

  12. Lesson 2 Using the Marquee Tools Selects pixels in a specific shape Rectangle/Square Oval/Circle Properties Style Normal Fixed Ratio Fixed Size Edge 12 Fireworks Chapter 3

  13. Figure 12: Using the Oval Marquee tool 13 Fireworks Chapter 3

  14. Lesson 2 Using the Transformation Tools Scale tool: resizes Skew tool: slants along horizontal and vertical axes Distort tool: alters size and proportion 14 Fireworks Chapter 3

  15. Figure 11: Skew and Distort Samples Distorted object Skewed object Original object 15 Fireworks Chapter 3

  16. Figure 17: Rotating an object 16 Fireworks Chapter 3

  17. Lesson 3 Learn About Selection Areas In this lesson, you will: Select pixels in an image using the lasso tools 17 Fireworks Chapter 3

  18. Lesson 3 Using the Lasso Tools Define an exact pixel selection Lasso tool Works well on images with curves Tracing ability a plus 18 Fireworks Chapter 3

  19. Lesson 3 Using the Lasso Tools Polygon Lasso tool Works well on images with straight lines or asymmetrical outlines Creates marquee in stages by clicking mouse 19 Fireworks Chapter 3

  20. Lesson 3 Using Select Menu Commands Select Inverse Select Similar Feather Expand Marquee Contract Marquee 20 Fireworks Chapter 3

  21. Lesson 3 Using Select Menu Commands Border Marquee Smooth Marquee Save Bitmap Selection Restore Bitmap Selection 21 Fireworks Chapter 3

  22. Figure 23: Result of Smooth Marquee command Smoothing removes pixels from selection 22 Fireworks Chapter 3

  23. Lesson 4 Select Areas Based on Color In this lesson, you will: Add select areas of color using the Magic Wand tool Merge layers Flatten the image 23 Fireworks Chapter 3

  24. Lesson 4 Using the Magic Wand Tool Selects pixels based on color Tolerance Range of colors the tool selects Increasing tolerance increases the ranges of similar colors selected Select Similar command adds matching colors to selection 24 Fireworks Chapter 3

  25. Figure 26: Sample Magic Wand and Select Similar selections Tolerance 64 selects nearly all of grape Tolerance 16 selects some green grape pixels 25 Fireworks Chapter 3

  26. Lesson 4 Merging and Flattening Objects and Layers Helps to manage file size but objects are no longer editable Modify menu commands Merge Down Flatten Selection Flatten Layers 26 Fireworks Chapter 3

  27. Figure 31: Objects flattened on individual layers 27 Fireworks Chapter 3

  28. Summary Chapter 3 Tasks Work with imported files Work with bitmap selection tools Learn about selection areas Select areas based on color 28 Fireworks Chapter 3
