[...] 另外，我会使用一些Axure控件库来提高制作原型的效率，例如：Better Defaults和Sketchy Axure Widget Library针对一些周期较长的项目，我们会整理一些Axure RP的视觉规范库，提高我们维护以及二次设计时的效率。我们还会使用shared project功能通过SVN来管理Axure RP的源文件，方便多人协作设计以及源代码的备份和版本控制。 [...]

Great feedback guys, thanks. I use The Unarchiver for decompressing these things, and it works great. I’ll be looking more into delivering the libraries with more clarity as the Mac version becomes more popular.

@this @Mat the Stuffit solution worked for me – I then used the load library… option inside an open maxure, and it loaded. And looks great!

@Thijs: Thanks for the tip but it didn’t work even I clicked right and used Stufflt Expander… However, I found the solution by using this software: http://zipeg.en.softonic.com/mac.

@Loren: thanks for this awesome work.

@Pierre I experienced that too. The problem is that when you double-click on the zip on the Mac it is unpacking the outside zip as well as the .rplib inside of the zip. Axure expects the .rplib to be compressed.

To work around this, I used StuffIt Expander to unpack the zip (right click Open With) and that extracted the .rplib intact.

Thanks to Victor from Axure support who sent me this tip.
