OmniGraffle 5.1.1 beta 1 is now available

by Joel on December 10, 2008

While developing OmniGraffle and OmniGraffle Professional 5.1, we wound up changing and adding quite a few strings and what-not, and as a result those corresponding localizations got broken in the process, this beta release has corrected foreign language translations for Chinese, Dutch, French, German, Italian, and Spanish. Japanese will be coming shortly in another beta release.

Also of note with this release is a fix to a memory leak related to some caching code; this repairs a common CGSWindow error that would lead to a string of constant crashes, so if you've run into a number of stability problems it's encouraged that you pick up this beta release.

As ever, the beta page awaits.

Boy, I hope that Automatic Layout isn't on by default anymore. It's ruined half a dozen good diagram layouts for me already, and doesn't produce aesthetically pleasing results even when you try to use it like it is meant to.


For all very good things you've done with all the software, this sure is an idiotic feature.

Templates in the Brainstorming and Organizational Charts section of the Template Chooser have automatic layout turned on, the remainder (Drawing & Space Planning) do not.


To turn off auto-layout, go to the Canvas : Diagram Layout inspector and uncheck the “Automatic layout” checkbox.
