Hi everyone,

Two questions that I've come up with over the last couple days of using OmniGraffle. Is it possible to alter the opacity of a non-graphic element, like a generic styled shape? I'd like to bring one boxes opacity down other the others.

--> You can rotate a shape, but it also roates the text inside of it too. This makes it difficult to make complementary shapes (for instance, the wavy box) -- you rotate and the text goes with it. Anyway around this?

Lastly, has anyone seen a stencil package of delimiters like parenthesis, brackets, curly braces, etc?

Thanks for your help --- !

Fill and stroke opacity is found in the color panel, near the bottom.

Independently rotated text is a feature of OmniGraffle Professional, so if that's the version you have you can find that in the Style: Text Inspector.

I need these as well, but haven't found any info. Anyone?
