Adobe Systems Incorporated (Nasdaq:ADBE) today announced the first
public preview of Adobe®
Edge Reflow, a new responsive design tool for Web designers and
developers creating websites and content for screens of virtually all
sizes. In addition, the company released new feature updates for Adobe
Edge Animate, Adobe
Dreamweaver® and Adobe
Edge Code preview. All today’s announced product releases are
available exclusively to Adobe
Creative Cloud™ members.
Adobe Edge Reflow is a new responsive Web design tool for creating
layout and visual designs with CSS and is available immediately as a
preview at no charge in Creative Cloud. Edge Reflow features an
intuitive resizable design surface that shows how layouts and visuals
will adapt to different screen sizes. Leveraging the power of CSS, Edge
Reflow enables users to create high fidelity Web designs on the
application’s native Web surface. It maintains the design vision,
through development, by allowing users to preview in the browser,
inspect their design in real-time via Edge
Inspect extension, and extract the CSS for use in Edge Code,
Dreamweaver or any code editor. During the preview period, Adobe is
actively seeking user feedback for Edge Reflow in order to help evolve
the product. Users are encouraged to submit their feedback to Adobe
through Github at https://github.com/edge-reflow/issues.
Adobe also announced important updates to Adobe Edge Animate to give it
powerful new CSS-based features, including gradients, CSS filters, and
enhanced font support. Users will now be able to style and animate
elements using radial or linear gradients, and preview Edge
Web Fonts* live in a new interface. New CSS filter support for Edge
Animate allows users to take advantage of exciting CSS capabilities
found in modern WebKit browsers, including blur, greyscale, sepia,
brightness, contrast, hue-rotate, invert and saturate filters.
Previously, filter effects could only be achieved using tools like Adobe
Photoshop®.
In addition, Adobe delivered an update to Adobe Dreamweaver exclusively
for Creative Cloud members that improves interoperability with the Adobe
Edge Tools & Services family and includes several new features to
enhance code authoring ability and workflow. Fluid grid layout, a
feature first introduced with Adobe Dreamweaver CS6, now allows
developers to leverage class tags in addition to ID tags and features a
new editing interface. Developers can also now easily preview, select
and incorporate Edge Web Fonts into their Dreamweaver projects.
This preview release of Adobe Edge Code includes features such as Live
Development, which allows users to see changes in the browser
immediately as they make code edits, and also Quick Edit, which lets
users edit code in context instead of switching between files. This
latest update adds code hinting for CSS properties and HTML tags and
attributes, making this release an even more productive code editor for
web designers and developers working with Web standards.
