I've just downloaded a demo of this today. Anyone else use it?
I'm finding there are quite a few irritations. If you add and delete pages the css menus which are built in don't update automatically (they do in rapidweaver).
I can tell it is really powerful software but it seems to be hampered by usability problems. It took ages just to import a picture as the file dialog wasn't appearing. Then the imported picture stopped being visible when I resized it. Then it didn't show up on top even when it was selected with 'bring to front' and was sitting under other elements. Drove me nuts.
I know rapidweaver is no good for what I want to do as it is limited to themes too much. DW is no good either as that the same crazy layout/preview/browser inconsistencies and is even more stupidly expensive.
Flux is sort of ok.
Ideally I want something that is as easy to build sites with as wordpress but has the design freedom of freeway. And cheap, and reliable, and mac and produces w3c compliant code. Moon meet stick...
