The HTML & Image Output

Slice and Dice lets you select 4 output types: JPEG, GIF, TIF and PNG (Portable Network Graphics). The first two are the most common, and JPEG gives you the highest resolution.

On TIFF and JPEG, you can set the quality factor with the Compression Factor Slider.

For GIF, you can turn on the dithering of transparent values.

PNG allows interlacing of image by checking the Interlace switch.

<A HREF=" "> tag is added to each sub image's html output if "Stub out HREF if no URL" is selected and a given sub image has no URL specified for it. This is useful for adding URL's later by hand to the html.

The
Edit->Preferences panel allows you to set the output options for newly created documents. Click "Default Settings" to restore basic settings.


Output Directory Format

When you select
File->Slice and Dice, a new directory is created with two items: an HTML document, <FILENAME>.html and an images directory, where all the subpieces reside.


Slice Documents

You can save your sliced documents with
File->Save, Save As..., and Save To... The image is saved along with the slice and URL information in a dictionary saved with the "slice" file type. Double-click a document to open, or use File->Open
