OmniGraffle 5.2

OmniGraffle 5.2 is such a wonderful program which helps you produce amazing-looking diagrams that communicate information far better than words - and if you're just looking to make a poster for your Sunday garage sale, it's perfect for that too. 

OmniGraffle is the tool to help you organize your thoughts visually, document them beautifully, and communicate them to the world. More than just a silly name, OmniGraffle is a powerful, yet easy to use diagramming and drawing tool.

OmniGraffle can help you make amazing graphic documents quickly by keeping lines connected to shapes even when they're moved, providing stencils full of common symbols for you to drag and drop, and magically organizing diagrams with just one click. Create flow charts, org charts, network diagrams, family trees, project processes, office layouts - or anything else that can be represented by symbols and lines.

Major Features:

1. New Layout Engine: The entirely new Graphviz-based layout engine built into OmniGraffle 5 allows for faster and more varied automatic layout types.
2. Bézier Lines: Curves are beautiful and added even more in OmniGraffle 5 with the inclusion of Bézier lines. Add control points to your lines and then swing them around to create the sinuous lines you've always wanted.
3. Mini Inspectors: The most common inspector controls at your fingertips with OmniGraffle 5's new mini-inspector has been put. Change object size, location, fill, stroke and other key attributes right at the top of the document window.
4. Style Tray: Object styles (fill, stroke, image, shadow) now appear in a style tray at the bottom of the main window — there's no need to open a separate style inspector. Drag and drop style chits to other objects, to a group, or to a tool to instantly copy the style there.
5. Stencil Search: OmniGraffle has a huge number of built-in and user-created stencils. Build up enough of these and they can be both useful and overwhelming. It is easier to manage your built-in stencils with the new search feature in the stencil window. Even better:  built-in styles.
6. Bézier Shapes: Complementing the new Bézier lines feature and traditionally only found in expensive, professional illustrating programs, OmniGraffle's Bézier shape drawing tool allows you to easily create custom shapes with lines made up of curves, straight lines, and control points. A Bézier curve allows you to specify not only the end points of a shape's line, but also the direction of the line as it passes through the end points — with a little practice, you'll have almost unlimited control over the objects you design.
7. Improved Import/Export: PDF, PICT, OmniOutliner: Nearly all existing import and export options have been greatly refined and improved. A vector PICT export format is available: OmniGraffle can both copy as vector PICT and export to that format, so you can more easily copy and paste between OmniGraffle diagrams and popular applications such as Microsoft Word or PowerPoint. Hyperlinks are supported on export to PDF, as is exporting files with multiple canvases as a single, multiple-page PDF file. EPS export has a preview image associated with it. Finally, OmniOutliner support has been updated, with options to import multiple column information, numbering, notes, and more.
8. Graphing Tools: OmniGraffle knows what makes a diagram different from a drawing, and gives you the tools to create amazing diagrams quickly and easily. Lines stay connected to their shapes, unlike with illustration programs, where you would have to redraw your diagram every time you moved something. In-depth graphing features include connector magnets that you can manually add, edit, and remove — so you can attach a line to a specific point on a shape and have it stay there.
9. Styles: Styles are the visual elements that define the look of shapes in your document. And with OmniGraffle, you've got lots of options for creating beautiful antialiased diagrams that print exactly how they appear on your screen. Fill your shapes with solid or partially transparent colors (or drop in an image to be offset or tiled within your shape), render complex shadow schemes, define your shape's borders with any number of line types — or just copy a series of styles from another shape.
10. Smart Guides: Smart guides help you lay out compelling documents in a flash. When you move a shape, distance markers pop up and tell you when your new shape is going to form an equally-spaced row or column with any other shapes. In addition to that, centerlines (or edge lines) draw when you are horizontally or vertically perfectly in line with another shape in your drawing, or the centerline of the canvas. When you're rotating or resizing a shape, markers tell you when your rotation/size matches that of other shapes. Instead of having to rely on a grid or your best guess, OmniGraffle tells you exactly how to create accurate and appealing diagrams.
11. Style & Selection: Selection & Style allows you to see what styles make up any shape in your document - from image fills to shadows to strokes - as well as how many objects you have selected versus how many there are on the canvas. The Selection functionality lets you select a whole class of objects (all squares, or all red circles, or…) and make changes to that class in one fell swoop. That means you won't have to select items one by one to make sweeping changes to your document.
    • You can also drag and drop styles onto other shapes to duplicate them. Styles can be dragged separately to apply only a certain attribute to a shape (ie, a blue dashed line only) or as a group to copy the entire style.
12. Auto Layout: The Automatic Layout inspector rearranges your diagram according to the rules you specify. Choose "hierarchical" to lay out your document in the familiar "tree" format — like in an org chart or family tree. Force-directed, radial, and circular layout styles are also available. Behind the scenes, OmniGraffle is using complicated mathematical algorithms to figure out your layout; you just tell it what to try next. Any messy diagram can be magically organized with just one click!
