Great news if your into web design, the highly successful Flux WYSIWYG web design software just got a major update to version 4
theescapers just released version 4 today with some great new features.
Flux is an advanced HTML5 Web Design application, capable of creating stunning sites from scratch. Flux isn't a template based solution, though it does have a few templates, it's a creative design environment. Flux has comprehensive support for HTML and CSS, including Image Maps, CSS Gradients, custom fonts, and almost everything else. What makes Flux stand out for me is the WYSIWYG interface which is unlike anything else I've seen. You don't need to know code at all but at the same time the code is all there for you to use if you want. You can import existing sites and it immediately shows in Flux as a beautiful WYSIWYG interface.
Heres whats new in version 4.
New in Version 4
Embedded Inspector| Do everything from a single window. |
FreeCode| FreeCode allows you to code however you want, but still allows you to make changes visually. |
All New FTP| FTP and SFTP completely re-written, rock solid and dependable. |
Gradients| A graphical CSS gradient editor makes this complex area simple, and you can easily export the gradients as images for backwards compatibility. |
Image Maps| Full support for MAP and AREA tags, complex polygons can be easily manipulated. |
AutoComplete| AutoComplete knows your code, completing tags, colors, even image paths. |
Flux has an amazing WYSIWYG rendering engine, which means you can drag, stretch, and move objects like a you can in a DTP application, and your webpages will look exactly how you intended.*Flux will generate all the code for you, with no unneccesary tags.
Size, position, even margins and padding can be altered with handles on the elements themselves. If the properties are stored in external CSS stylesheets, these are automaticaly updated.
*On standards compliant web browsers
Code
If you’d rather type your code, you can do that too. The objects you create in the Code Editor will appear on the page as soon as you stop typing, they can then be edited using the WYSIWYG display.
Flux doesn’t make a distinction between typed code, or objects created by Flux, you can create anyway you like, and Flux will understand.
The Flux Code Editor has syntax highlighting for HTML and CSS, auto-completion and line numbering.
FreeCode allows you to type any code you want, yet Flux still understands and allows you to use WYSIWYG controls or handcoding.

This is the only app I found that will let me import my HTML web site files that I created in another application (iWeb).
All others would require rebuilding my site from scratch, when all I wanted to do was update some broken links.
If you download the demo, don't be alarmed when the Mac App Store says you have to delete it before purchasing from them.
I think the $64.95 price on the Mac App Store is a promotional price.
It sure is a great program I didnt get it throught the app store but got it on special recently. Glad your finding it helpful.
