We have created a series of videos about the new one-line diagram feature. These videos are a test to see how they work as a method for helping you learn about new features.
If you have any feedback about the videos, please share it by replying to this email. Are they helpful? Is this form of documentation better than just text? How could we make them more useful?

Below is a list of recent ideas on our wishlist.
Customers regularly share ideas about what they would like us to add to the software. What we don't know is how many other people are interested in the idea. If you see something that looks interesting to you, vote for it. We prioritize features based upon the number of votes and the difficulty to implement. Knowing whether other people are interested in an idea or not helps us know if we should spend development time on it or on something else.
