Configurator is a utility application that helps create custom panels for Photoshop and InDesign. Configurator makes it easy to drag and drop tools, menu items, scripts, actions, and other objects into a panel design, then export the results for use in Photoshop or InDesign. These panels leverage built-in Flash support, making it possible to drag and drop audio, video, images, web pages and even other SWF and HTML content files into a panel design.
