Moving slice guides to edit slices

Slice guides define the perimeter and position of slices. Slice guides extending beyond slice
objects define how the rest of the document is sliced upon export. You can change the shape
of a rectangular slice object by dragging the slice guides that surround it. Nonrectangular slice
objects cannot be resized by moving slice guides.
Resizing a slice object by dragging its slice guides
If you drag slice guides that surround a Fireworks button in the Document window,
Fireworks resizes the slice that defines the active area for that button. However, you
cannot delete the active area for a Fireworks button by dragging the slice guides that
surround it.
If multiple slice objects are aligned along a single slice guide, you can drag that slice guide to
resize all the slice objects simultaneously.
Resizing multiple slice objects by dragging a single guide
In addition, if you drag one guide along a given coordinate, all other guides on that same
coordinate move with it.
