To change the color of a selected slice object:
In the Property inspector, select a new color from the color box.

1
Select View > Guides > Edit Guides.

Editing slices
In Fireworks you can work with a slice layout as if it were a table in a word-processing application. When you drag
a slice guide to resize a slice, Fireworks automatically resizes all adjacent rectangular slices as well. In addition, you
can use the Property inspector to resize and transform slices as you would vector and bitmap objects.
Moving slice guides to edit slices
Slice guides define the perimeter and position of slices. Slice guides extending beyond slice objects define how the
rest of the document is sliced upon export. You can change the shape of a rectangular slice object by dragging the
slice guides that surround it. Nonrectangular slice objects cannot be resized by moving slice guides.
Resizing a slice object by dragging its slice guides
Note:
If you drag slice guides that surround a Fireworks button in the Document window, Fireworks resizes the slice
that defines the active area for that button. However, you cannot delete the active area for a Fireworks button by
dragging the slice guides that surround it.
If multiple slice objects are aligned along a single slice guide, you can drag that slice guide to resize all the slice objects
simultaneously.
Resizing multiple slice objects by dragging a single guide
In addition, if you drag one guide along a given coordinate, all other guides on that same coordinate move with it.
To resize one or more slices:
1
Position the Pointer or Subselection tool over a slice guide.
