Hi.

I like OmniGraffle (Pro) really and it is one of my most important tools for the preparation of company presentations and workshops. It's a perfect tool for diagramming and documentation.

Nevertheless, sometimes it is useful to stress out the fact, that an illustration is just an illustration and not the documentation of a specific scenario. In these cases I typically use a "Brush-Style" lifestyle. This style is supported by Apples Keynote for shapes. This brush styles for lines (and even fills would be appreciated) would stress the fact that whatever diagram has been created is just a conceptional image - not a real design.

As an example you may refer to the illustrations available here: http://nvie.com/posts/a-successful-git-branching-model/.

Therefore i would like to request some new styles for OmniGraffle:
  • Brush style for lines.
  • (Optional) brush styles for fills.
  • (Really optional) [JavaScript] renderes for line stroke-width and custom irregular dithering.

Regards,
Ralf
