Individual Graphic Data Elements
« on: June 13, 2012, 11:44:44 PM »
It would be most useful if one could create individual graphic elements that contain user specified text and data.  Essentially additional banners than can be resized.  This would allow placing text values for various parameters on a page without using the tag mechanism.  My web page creation software (iWeb 3.0) does not create an html file that can easily be used with tags.  I am sure others would appreciate this ability as well.  It would allow virtually any text and data to be placed on a page without having to resort to direct html manipulation.

Thanks for your consideration of this request.

Hello and welcome to the forum. I made a similar request some time ago and Stu said that he was going to put it on his to do list. I am currently using iWeb myself, but, as you have found, it does have one or two shortfalls. I am looking at some others at the mo, and there are quite a few to choose from that make building a site easy.
Keep an eye on the forum though, and you may well find your request popping up in the Cat, Stu does an excellent job of support for this great product.

Best wishes

Mike

Hi Moosebreath,

Yep, as Mike says, this is on the list to look at in the future.

Cheers,
Stu.
