I used this software to draw a number of diagrams today, and just wanted to pass along some suggestions.
The software does a great job at drawing the diagrams, but it is not without bugs. I am referring to the standalone version of the program you can download for Windows. I am not sure if the browser-based version has these issues, or that for other platforms.
It seems to have an issue where sometimes it will show the updated view of any changes you've made, but if you go to save or export to PNG/SVG, it will use an old version without any changes you have made. The workaround I recommend is to copy/paste from the program to a text editor, and use that to save your diagram source. That way you won't ever lose any work you've done on a drawing. To work around the Export to PNG/SVG issue, restart the program, copy over the source from your text editor, and immediately do the export.
These bugs are a bit of a pain in the posterior, but even with the flaws this thing is just craploads quicker and nicer than Visio or even the commercial timing software out there (I've tried them).
