  • Flash Catalyst can import Photoshop, Illustrator, or Fireworks files keeping all their features.
  • Convert artwork to skin the functional application Flex UI components with a couple of clicks.
  • Create and edit behaviors: mouse events handling etc. without writing code.
  • Create UIs to handle dynamic data without having access to the actual data source.
  • Use design-time data placeholders when marking up an application, testing interactivity, and choreographing motion.
