Hi



Was seriously considering a subscription to what looks like a great tool; HOWEVER; after installing on my Surface Pro and trying to use it with the surface pen its infuriating. (Online & Offline version)





  • There's no canvas area pinch-zoom.


  • Every time you select an ERD object the keyboard opens in a sectioned off screen area.


  • You can't join ERD entities with relationships using the pen unless you're zoomed in.


  • The zoom bar is terrible to use.




PLEASE - Sit someone in a room with a surface + pen and get some serious usability feedback. You know that tablets & pens are the future right ? You know you need to address this ? The desktop + mouse is NOT where this product's customer base lies.



This needs to be a slick easy to use product for tablet owners.



I need to do ERD diagrams and the template for that on your desktop version (with mouse) seems really good. I also need to do web-application screen designs and user journeys. I wanted this tool to work so badly on my Surface Pro but I feel really let down I almost had my credit card out for a PRO subscription... I was SO CLOSE to buying it till I trialled it on my Surfcae... :-(



 Please fix it... I want to use it...
