Macromedia has announced that Director MX for OS X will ship in December. This app is
"the most powerful multimedia authoring environment" for building rich, interactive
content and applications deployed on CD/DVD-ROM, kiosks and the web. This is the first
version of Director for Apple's "super-modern" OS, and it takes full advantage of X's
power and stability.
"Macromedia is entirely committed to the Mac, as all of the Macromedia MX authoring
tools are built natively for Mac OS X," said Rob Burgess, chairman and CEO. "Director
MX includes support for QuickTime 6 and is optimized to take advantage of the Mac's
PowerPC G4 processor with Velocity Engine. Developers are chomping at the bit to use
this industry-leading multimedia authoring tool."
"Macromedia is doing terrific work for Mac OS X, and this new version of Director MX
is a prime example," said his Steveness. "Director MX taps into Mac OS X's advanced
technologies to deliver a powerful authoring tool for multimedia developers and
designers."
Director MX's many new features include:
� Seamless, comprehensive integration with the Macromedia Flash MX product family;
� Adoption of the streamlined Macromedia MX user interface;
� Major new workflow efficiencies; and
� The ability to create accessible content so that rich Director presentations can be
enjoyed by people with disabilities.
Director MX is the latest integrated Macromedia tool to run natively on Mac OS X,
joining Macromedia Flash MX, Macromedia Dreamweaver MX, Macromedia Fireworks MX and
Macromedia FreeHand 10.
Editor's note: Is Macromedia's MX roll out now complete or do they have more/new stuff
on tap?
