A couple of important things to talk about in this release, aside from  
various bug fixes (which are faithfully documented in the historical  
release notes <http://www.omnigroup.com/applications/omnigraffle/releasenotes/ 
 >).

The first of which is, we've added multi-touch support for zooming the  
view, and resizing and rotating selections. If you've got one of the  
newer MacBooks that support multi-touch on the trackpad, a pinch will  
zoom the view in and out. If there's a selection, pinching will resize  
that selection, and you can also rotate said selection. Please let us  
know how this works out for you, we have a feeling that at present the  
multi-touch support is somewhat sensitive.

Secondly, we've added a hidden preference to persistently display the  
layer status icons in the Canvases Sidebar, to match behavior that was  
present in OmniGraffle 4. If you'd like to have these icons show all  
the time (as opposed to mouseover or in their "on" state), open up  
Terminal.app and paste in the following and press Return:

defaults write com.omnigroup.OmniGraffle AlwaysShowLayerStatusIcons YES

If you're running OmniGraffle Professional, the above should read as:

defaults write com.omnigroup.OmniGrafflePro AlwaysShowLayerStatusIcons  
YES

As always, the beta page awaits <http://www.omnigroup.com/applications/omnigraffle/beta/ 
 >.

Enjoy!
