What's new in version Q1 2006:

Performance:
The rendering and hit test performance of the product has been significantly improved.

Nevron DOM compliance:
The product is now fully compliant with the Nevron Document Object Model.

Nevron Persistency compliance:
The product is now fully compliant with the Nevron Persistency engine, which
implements structured serialization in binary, XML, SOAP, Custom Binary and Custom
XML formats.

Merged View and Design modes:
The View and Design modes of the views have been merged. As a result DOM objects can
now receive interactive events, while at the same time you can use the view tools to
edit the document. You have full control over the priority in which the DOM objects
receive interactive events.

New graph edges:
Implemented were several new types of graph edges the most important ones of which
are the routable graph edge and the step3 graph edges.

Improved library management:
Library documents and library views has been significantly improved. As a result the
masters previews are now much more realistic and libraries are very fast to display
and edit. You can now view libraries in five modes: icons and names, icons only,
icons and details, list and thumbnails.

Improved data exchange:
The data exchange mechanism has been significantly improved, so that you can now
easily extend the component to support different types of data object formats. All
you need to do is implement a data object adapt and register it in the document.

Improved routing:
The build in support for routing has been significantly improved. As a result the
routing of routable edges is now much faster and if specified can be automatically
performed. Added were a lot of aesthetic considerations in the route finding
algorithm such as minimal amount of turns, port orientation etc. You can also
specify on a per obstacle basis whether the route can cross the shape only
horizontally or vertically.

Improved snapping:
The support for snapping has been significantly improved. As a result plugs can now
snap to ports. You can specify the snap targets for each type of point and you can
also control the snap strength of each individual snap target.
