OmniGraffle 5.0.1 beta 1 is now available

[Yehuda Katz]

I brought this up a while back, but it would be really nice if the org-chart
tool was usable. At present, subitems are always created horizontally, so an
item with 10-15 subitems (as is common in an org-chart) is no longer viable.
Additionally, several sibling items with even 5 subitems apiece quickly
overruns the available horizontal space.
The solution is draw siblings horizontally, vertically, or in a grid as
appropriate to fill the space available. I am currently doing that manually,
but it would sure be great to, at the very least, be able to say that a
certain part of the chart is special and should not be redrawn when the
chart is recalculated.

Make sense?
