(I'm in a kind of rush and your comment really inspired me, so the organization in this reply is pretty bad.) Well, there's nothing this or Treesheets does that nothing else (in MS…

Thanks. A video would take a really long time. I'll make one when I'm done fixing everything. One thing you could try right now is making a 10x10 grid, then clearing the borders of…

Are you using it on mobile? It's meant to be used on desktop.

I'll definitely make a comparison video or post. COPYPASTE: A video would take a really long time. I'll make one when I'm done fixing everything. One thing you could try right now …

It's just an analogy of music. Music is a succession of sounds. Ideamusic is a succession of ideas. Here's the guiding philosophy of Zeminary if you don't have a Twitter. https://p…

Off the top of your head, what might be a better shortcut scheme for Zeminary?

Fun was a big part of it. If you use the hotkeys, it feels like a game with everything snapping about.

I'll add in drag to move points. What's the problem with drag to resize? I'll add tooltips as someone else suggested earlier. I'll add hover options to make it easier to add new ro…
