Thank you for all your hard work on this wonderful tool. But may I suggest a couple of bug fixes and possible improvements.
1 -- In Safari, the 'Clear the Diagram' button doesn't work -- please fix!
Turntable 3 2 4 wheeled. 2. -- Is it possible for each photographer to create and then store some basic set-ups as pre-sets? Not all, but many lighting set-ups I use are essentially variations of certain basic studio and location arrangements, and having these as custom presets, i.e., as starting points, with the appropriate array of lights, reflectors, etc. already there would speed diagram creation in those cases.
2. -- The green arrows that adjust the angle of objects are good -- but would be better yet if they allowed finer control of the exact angle.
3 -- The ability to scale the size of the subjects, reflectors. and other icons would be extremely useful.
I realize you've tried to provide a variety of icons to indicate large and small softboxes. But you have not yet done so for reflectors -- and I have many different size reflectors, ranging from two-inch table-top reflectors for food and product shots to a 6 x 6 foot silver/white reflector for group shots. The menu of lighting objects you've provided is already getting so crowded as to be hard to use. I suggest providing some basic icons with the ability for each user to scale them larger and smaller by clicking and dragging on a size control tab for each object, similar to the other control tools that already come with the objects
4 -- And as other have noted, the ability to add notes would be great -- but perhaps you can do that in the Photoshop version. which I haven't tried yet.
5 -- Also, I'd love it if you could select an object from the menu and then simply drag it into position onto the diagram. The way it is now: first, you have to click on the menu item; then move your cursor onto where the icon appears at upper left on diagram; and then from there move the icon into its final position. Wouldn't it be faster, easier and more efficient to simply drag it off the menu and position it in one simple movement?
6 -- Maybe it's a glitch in Safari, or maybe I just missed something obvious, but once I clicked an object's 'switch layer level' button, I sort of lost control of it and couldn't figure out how to access the different layers. Am I doing something wrong? Or do I have to go into Photoshop to get to the layers?
7. -- After I add a snoot icon to a speedlight icon, there ought to be some way to join these two icons together on the diagram so I can move move them together as one unit, and in that way can more quickly modify the diagram to reflect different positioning during a shoot. I'd also like to see individual icons for barndoors, various size grid spots, and other common modifiers I put on my speedlights and monolights
One can think of other similar icon combinations -- umbrellas with monolights, for example -- that should be join-able on the diagram. Again, this may be possible with the layer function, which I may have not understood.
In any event, thank you!

Unlike most tablet applications our iPad and Window 10 apps are not a lite version of a desktop solution, but the real thing: all features of our desktop offering are available on smaller screens. On mobile, we fully embrace 'content first' approach. Nothing stays between you and your work. All control elements are context aware and are placed on the flyout panels that appear on the screen only when you need them. Our UI allows you to be really productive on tablet devices.
Creating beautiful drawings does not require design skills thanks to built-in themes and styles, hundreds of ready-to-use shapes on the toolbox, dynamic grid, snap lines and smart shapes. Unique 'sketch' mode allows styling of any figure as if it is sketched by hand.

With Grapholite, you will be able to design even the most sophisticated diagrams with a couple of clicks/taps. An intellectual algorithm of connector layout helps you make automatic connections between the diagram elements as neatly as possible. Minimum intersections, a little shift of a line in the place where the connections could overlap, a loop in the intersection of the links — all these details that seem to be unimportant are in fact very useful and make your flowcharts more professional and readable. Minimum manual work is required.
