I found WireframeSketcher a must have addin for Eclipse, enabling me to complete very detailed wireframes for clients within the development ennvironment. I've just written article about my experiences of using WireframeSketcher for the last month. Posted in Tools | 2 Comments » 2 Responses to “WireframeSketcher 1.4.2” Overall, this one is a very interesting tool. What is also interesting is that in this way, users can also combine multiple master pages, providing even more flexibility. Instead, pages are simply created and if a user wishes to reuse a page as a master, the page is inserted as a “Master Screen” object anywhere on a new page. With WireframeSketcher users do not have to worry about defining masters up front (at the time when it still it is not known which elements are to be shared across). Another unique feature of this program is how it handles masters. This features is an interesting exploration of the communicative role of prototyping which many UI tools fall short on. Basically, drawn screens can be organized in a linear fashion into presentable stories. What sets WireframeSketcher apart is definitely the storyboard mode (as seen on the second screen).
The latest version also supports states for certain form elements allowing to specify such things as disabled, selected or enabled modes. This tool comes with a wide palette of draggable user interface elements, widgets, sliders, and icons as most user interface designers would expect. WireframeSketcher is a plugin for the popular Eclipse development platform and allows for the creation of quick wireframes.
