[instaviz-users] Instaviz 1.1 is out in the App Store!

[Michael Zufferey]

Dear Glen,

thank you very much for your reply and sorry for my late reply. Also Happy
New Year :).

Regarding the issue 'moving a graph', I have remarked the following (after
some tests):

If x and y are the dimensions of the iPhone screen and x1 and y1 are the
dimensions of the graph then, you can move the graph if:

x1 > x or y1 >y or ( x1 > x and y1 >y)

If zooming a graph would make it bigger than the screen dimension then you
can quite easily move it in 1 or 2 directions.

Additionally, I would like to ask if in a future release it would be
possible to implement BPMN (i.e., Business Process Management Notation -
http://www.bpmn.org/) into Instaviz.
I think that it will be rather useful taking into account that the BPM and
could make Instaviz one of the first mobile tool that can allow this
notation.
Basically, Instaviz propose already some BPMN elements which would make the
BPMN implementation easier.

Thank you very much.

Best wishes,
Michael
