Is it possible to transfer a VSD projet to HTML editor and save it together to upload?

Hiya Romina,

When you save a VSD site, I believe it creates the html files in a folder for you, or it has an export feature, not sure which, but I think it saves them automatically for you. When it uploads it uploads all the files needed also which you can just download all the parts and pieces (html's images, js, etc.) and edit to your hearts content.

The only thing you "cannot" do is put it back into the VSD program once you've edited it. You can always open the last .vnu file in VSD that doesn't have any external changes in it, you just can't put them back into VSD with your changes as they are completely separate entities.

Hopefully someone that uses VSD will stop by and confirm how the files are saved to edit them manually for us as I don't use the program, I just know it is definitely possible to do. You don't need to export them to the HTML Editor, you just open them with it.

Happy HTML Editing :)

Yes, you can edit the pages in an HTML Editor after VSD generates them, but any changes you make will be lost when you open your website inside of VSD again.

You may want to consider just starting over using the CSS templates or create your own similar to what you currently have. VSD exports fixed size images that you can not outgrow if your text or web page is to expand.
CoffeeCup... Yeah, they are the best!
