Yourhead Software has come out with an update to their popular Blocks plugin for Rapidweaver. Blocks allows you to position elements within the page and alleviates some obvious shortcomings to RealMac Software's handy little application. It offers the ability to position elements, text, graphics raw code, anywhere on the page all from within the Rapidweaver application.

Some of the new interesting features is the ability to render styled text blocks as graphics. This allows the inclusion of decorative fonts, which remain editable within Rapidweaver, but become graphic images on the published site. This is a nice alternative to the use of standard fonts, but allows you the flexibility to edit that text up 'til, and even after you publish the site.

There are also numerous features and enhancements that remain undocumented during this public beta. Yourhead wants beta testers to use the software to its limits to uncover any anomalies for the gold master version.

This piece of software really address some of the shortcomings within Rapidweaver. Rapidweaver is a great RAD tool and companies like Yourhead are really extending its functionality by producing such stellar plugins.
