In your profile you can now setup defaults for
Object Selection, let’s you select a object and continuously work with it until you either select a different object or change the select mode by clicking this button 
. After plenty of requests from the power users for this option, we’re happy to release it.
Here’s a short video of it. Make sure you view it in HD.
Feedback on the forums is welcome as always!
Previously we had only 1 option “Smooth” which automatically created a smooth curve from the segmented line, users didn’t have many options to adjust the resulting Bézier curve. In the recent update, Segmented Lines have more smoothing options and better control.
Once you draw a segmented line, adjust the smoothness by selecting the option “Smooth Type” in the object properties window.
In today’s update we have two major features added and many bug fixes.
1) No more Fisheye menu in the editor.
2) Connect anywhere on simple and clipart objects. In the previous version when you connected a line/arrow/curve to an object you had to click on a default set of connector points or increase/decrease your connection points via the Simple Object properties, this had two downsides, 1) You couldn’t really connect to the object itself, you could only connect to the border of the object, this was not very intuitive. 2) It was confusing to have so many connection points.
We completely did away with connection points with “connect anywhere” feature, now you can snap to the object itself, not the border and can snap anywhere, no preset points.
We hope you find this useful. Feedback is always appreciated.
Flowchart.com has a Record & Playback feature, where you can record all the actions you perform when creating a Flowchart and save it for playback at any time. Say for example you are creating a process and want to clue in your peers of how you got to that process, you can record the creation of your flowchart and send them a playback link where they can either play it back frame by frame or play it back as a movie so they can understand your thought process and start collaborating via Flowchart.com realtime collaboration functionality to further enhance the process. Here is a short demo below.
