In fields employing interface design skills, slicing is the process of dividing a single 2D user interface composition layout ( comp) into multiple image files ( digital assets) of the graphical user interface (GUI) for one or more electronic pages. It is typically part of the client side development process of creating a web page and/or web site, but is also used in the user interface design process of software development and game development.
The process involves partitioning a comp in either a single layer image file format or the multi-layer native file format of the graphic art software used for partitioning. Once partitioned, one would save them as separate image files, typically in GIF, JPEG or PNG format in either a batch process or one at a time. Multi-layered image files may include multiple versions or states of the same image, often used for animations or widgets.
Slicing may refer to:
- Slicing, a mechanical process, see Cutting

- Program slicing, a set of software engineering methods
