Summary


You have now learned everything there is to about creating diagrams in OmniGraffle. The rest of the book will cover various properties and styling options not covered so far.

This chapter explained the rest of the tools on the canvas toolbar, including how to customize the toolbar keeping only the tools you normally use.

By deploying Diagramming Tools, Mouseless Editing, and using the Outline function you can create your diagrams amazingly fast. The Diagramming Tool lets you create new connected shapes using your mouse—and the Mouseless Editing and the Outline function gave you the opportunity to edit your diagrams without using a mouse at all.

You learned how to quickly absorb a style from one shape and paint the style onto other shapes—this may be quicker than using the Canvas Style Tray and the Canvas Selection inspector palette.

You learned everything you ever need to know about magnetic connection points—including how to customize these to fit your particular shapes.
