[IxDA Discuss] Prototyping tools

[Douglas Brashear]

Hello all,

I have a quick question about conversion between Omnigraffle and
Visio...the last time I tried it (converting Omnigraffle files and
opening them in Visio) there seemed to be no support for Visio's
"background" page concept. Does Omnigraffle support templated
backgrounds? I generally use these in Visio for capturing common
elements on page types, and then using them as the basis for visualizing
specific pages of a specific type.

Also, I may have come into the conversation on the late side...aside
from the tools we commonly use, does anyone have any experience
prototyping RIAs in OpenLaszlo, Axure or Flash? If so I'd be interested
in hearing the pros/cons of each based on your experience
(time-to-develop comparisons, capabilities & limitations, etc.). If this
was already discussed just let me know and I'll dig up the older
post(s).

Thanks in advance!

- Doug
