OmniGraffle for Mac

Version 7.5

OmniGraffle 7.5 is focused on improving JavaScript automation. Technical details about Omni Automation are available in the API Reference (in the Automation menu).

• Layer and Canvas Management via JavaScript — Added the ability to create, reorder, and delete layers and canvases with JavaScript.
• Ungroup via JavaScript — Added an .ungroup() function to the JavaScript library.
• Object Names in JavaScript — An object’s name is now exposed in the JavaScript API by calling .name on an instance of a Graphic.
• Option + Shift to Duplicate on Axis — Holding down option and shift while dragging a selection duplicates the selection and constrains movement to either the horizontal or vertical axis.
• Object Hierarchy when Copied as JavaScript — Copy as JavaScript no longer reverses the order of the selected items.
• JavaScript Floating Point Precision Warning — Copy as JavaScript includes a header which warns that floating point values in the script may be rounded, resulting in minor visual differences from the original content.
• JavaScript Plug-in Error Reporting — Errors encountered while loading JavaScript plug-ins are now reported in the console.
• Updated Types in JavaScript — Updated the CanvasSizingMode (was autosizing) and .strokePattern to define their attributes as strings instead of numbers to be more human readable.
• Copying Subgraphs as JavaScript — Copy as JavaScript will now emit the correct code to generate subgraphs, including any child objects that might be collapsed.
• Subgraph collapse state in JavaScript — JavaScript code which assigns a value to a Subgraph’s .collapsed property will correctly use the value passed rather than just toggling the collapsed state.
• JavaScript Access to Collapsed Subgraphs — JavaScript code has access to a new .subgraphics property on subgraphs, which can be used to access contained graphics even when the subgraph is collapsed.
• Automation Stability — Fixed a crash when setting .blendColor on a Shape object in JavaScript.
• Automation Stability — Fixed a bug that would occasionally cause a crash when creating a new group via JavaScript.
• Copy as JavaScript Stability — Fixed a crash when using Copy as JavaScript on a multi-segment line.
• Multi-line Text Copied as JavaScript — Copy as JavaScript now quotes property keys so that user data with spaces in their keys won’t cause a syntax error in the emitted JavaScript code.
• Stop In-progress Edits Before Executing JavaScript — JavaScript code which changes the text of a shape will now stop any edits that are in progress rather than leaving the editor and the shape in an inconsistent state.
• Preserving .text Attributes in JavaScript — JavaScript code which assigns text to a shape correctly preserves its existing .textHorizontalAlignment, .textSize, and .textColor properties.
• AppleScript — AppleScript code which assigns plain text to a shape correctly preserves the current text alignment.
• Reading .shape Attributes in JavaScript — JavaScript code which reads a graphic’s .shapeVertices or .shapeControlPoints no longer modifies that shape.
• Automation Console Stability — Fixed a crash that would occur when using Undo in the Automation Console.
