Altia releases PhotoProto for Photoshop
Altia has released PhotoProto, an Adobe Photoshop plug-in designed to automatically transform Photoshop artwork into working user interface prototypes. Artists can arrange and name layers in Photoshop artwork such that PhotoProto can determine their intent, after which the plug-in automatically turns the static images into a working interactive prototype. Users can push buttons, navigate screens, scroll through lists, and perform other interactive functions. The plug-in requires no scripting language or complex authoring environment knowledge, and the output is presentable engineers as well as programmers who can use it directly within the desired software. PhotoProto works with Mac OS X 10.4 or later as well as Microsoft Windows 2000/XP, and is priced at $500.
