March Madness Discount

Tuesday, March 9th, 2010

Version 4 Launch CouponTo celebrate the release of V4.0 of GUI Design Studio, we’re offering you 25% off the list price for the rest of March 2010.

Version 4 has some fantastic new features in which help you get a working prototype in the hands of your users and engineers even faster.

Extended interaction functionality means your user interfaces can be even more realistic than ever with working with data values, conditional content and business rules driving navigation. Custom Elements and Templates let you and your colleagues share your work on multiple projects with ease.

We have some great new features planned for later in the year that will be available free of charge to v4 license holders.

Now is a great time to take advantage of the powerful prototyping features that GUI Design Studio provides, and if you’re an existing user, we’re sure you’ll want to upgrade.

But here is a little incentive…

If you purchase a new license or upgrade from a fully licensed copy of v3 by 31 March 2010, we’ll give you a 25% discount!

Here are the facts:

  List price March offer
GUI Design Studio V4 Express $129 $97
GUI Design Studio V4 Professional $499 $375
Upgrade from Express to Pro $399 $299
Upgrade from v3 to Pro $149 $112

If you’ve been keeping up to date with V3 you’ll know that we’ve released some great features in the last 12 months including the huge Calendar element just last month, so keeping up to date makes sense.

To take advantage of this offer, simply visit the buy page and use coupon code V4-2TKAW8 on the order form, and your 25% discount will automatically be applied. But you’ll need to buy before the end of the month to qualify!

GUI Design Studio 4.0 Preview – Part 2:
Custom Elements and Templates

Monday, February 22nd, 2010

Version 4.0 PreviewGUI Design Studio version 4.0 includes new “Custom Elements” and “Templates”. These complement Components and Libraries already in GUI Design Studio.

They’re simple but they can make a big difference to your productivity by cutting out a huge amount of repetitive work, keeping consistency with house styles and helping you to create designs faster.

Custom Elements

Any folder within the Project tree can be assigned to be a Custom Element Folder. The folder icon then changes to indicate its new status. This is also applied to all of its sub-folders.

Custom Elements Folder

Now, you can create Custom Element designs within the folder and any existing GUI design that you want to be used as a Custom Element can be dragged into it.

In this post you’ll get an overview of the new Interaction features with suggestions on how you might use them (screenshots are subject to change before final release). You’ll also see how to get free access to beta versions of the software before the final release next month.

New Interaction Features

When you show a user interface design to a prospective user they are going to want to understand what the design will be like to use. They will need to try out the types of operations that will be important to them, in their work, trying to achieve their objectives.
