Suppose, for example, that one source file is used to generate several different export files,
each with different backgrounds (or canvases, as they are called in Fireworks). In that case, you are better off
modifying the specific exported file, rather than the general source image.
Dreamweaver enables you to choose which type of image you want to modify. When you first execute the
Optimize Image or the Edit Image command, a Find Source dialog box appears (see Figure 24-5). If you
want to locate and use the source file, click Use a PNG; to use the exported image that is inserted in
Dreamweaver, click Use This File. If you opt for the source file??”and the image was created in Fireworks??”
Dreamweaver reads the Design Note associated with the image to find the location of the source file and open
it. If the image was created with an earlier version of Fireworks or the image has been moved, Dreamweaver
asks you to locate the file with a standard Open File dialog box. By setting the Fireworks Source Files option,
you can always open the same type of file: source or exported. Should you change your mind about how you
like to work, open Fireworks and select Edit ??? Preferences, then choose the desired option from the Launch
and Edit panel.
There??™s one case in which Fireworks does not follow your Launch and Edit preferences: If the
image chosen is a sliced image, Fireworks always optimizes the exported file rather than the
source, regardless of your settings.
