This is one of our next features. We've had a lot of feature requests for a better font integration. If you have a typekit account, we will soon be able to use that. Email me: ben@easel.io and we'll set it up.

To answer the original question, we offer 2 things beyond the competitors: More flexibility: You can style elements, and you dont need to use the bootstrap containers (or bootstrap) if you dont want to. This is cool as we've been able to de

Sorry about your demo document on signup not loading. All should be fixed now. And Max (yesimhuman) is right: it's pretty early, and we're all approaching the problem from different perspectives.

The welcome note is only on the bootstrap demo. You can signup from the homepage: http://easel.io , or from the 'I want an account' button on the demo. Documents you create with your own account wont have the welcome popup.

Is there any way to get any existing data on the iphone into the app (preferably without too much pain)? I assume it's already logging my info: http://petewarden.github.com/iPhoneTracker/

You can do this today with the http://easel.io chrome extension. https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/deejobgbijaihniifc... It uses html/css, so you can even edit the things you import.

Did you try control key instead of command? Apologies for the apple key on the demo. We'll fix it soon. In non-mac environments, the control key is substituted for all key commands.

Interesting. Using canvas allows us to do a couple things: - draw vector shapes - export images on the client side - filters/effects in the future - pixelated zoom (not implemented, yet, though)

It does export pieces of the design in html/css.

Sorry for the confusion. It's just what mkl said: the apple keys are hardcoded into the demo page.

by mrbogle 14y ago
Thanks for the feedback. The apple keys are part of the design so sadly wont change. Shift should work for selecting multiple items, so thats a bug. We admittedly haven't done much testing on other platforms. Grouping and making elements sh

Thanks.

Ooh, Thanks.
78.
by mrbogle 14y ago
Thanks. That is the intent. Design prototyping, but with tools that allow the dev to build it more quickly.
79.
by mrbogle 14y ago
Yeah, I have some plans on how that will fit into your workflow with the rest of the guys. Will email soon.
80.
by mrbogle 14y ago
Noted. We'll work on making this more clear and maybe direct people to click rather than use the hotkeys.
81.
by mrbogle 14y ago
Thanks. We agree with you. It will be so much easier when the tools understand the process.
82.
by mrbogle 14y ago
Many designers definitely need more than the tool currently provides. I'm curious, what would it need for you to use easel?
83.
by mrbogle 14y ago
Right. That's a human problem, though. Many designers have told us they feel very restricted in wysiwyg tools, so refuse to use them.

It can. But things will all be absolutely positioned. The intent is to generate pieces of html and css that fit into your dev environment. The code generation is still very much in-flux, but from what we're seeing, programmers dont want the

The intent at this point is to not generate layout html/css. Humans are much better at this right now than the editor could be. And the assumption is that the programmer will want to write the layout code himself anyway, being careful to pl

Thank you for such a detailed reply! As for the circles, we thought they looked better than squares. We've been getting tons of response on the number in the middle of the circle; it is the stroke width. The 'inspector' (good name, btw) nee

Thanks :). Ah, ok. Will fix the stuck issue. That's a nasty one.

Marquee is _really_ cool. But they are aimed at a different audience: non technical users. Our goal is to help streamline the design -> development process. The people making apps need a lot more flexibility than marquee provides.
