May be michele should have a look at what we have under to trunk. I'm not bashing roassal. I'm saying that Moose does not exploit it well (and that roassal should provide way to cut symbol). the problem is different and have nothing to do with the framwork but more to the use of the framework. - first having a real visualisation with menu proposing semantics action like delete, select connected, mark,,, would make a huge difference. - second, really using the tools for a real scenario will show that we have 95% but the last 5% are like the labels missing the shrinking label in the distribution map. the difference is that when adrian and doru implemented distribution map the first time, they spent attention to the details now we can do a dsitributino in roassal but it was lacking the care to the little details like the shrinking of the labels. Look for example at the metaBrowser. in four methods you have it and it is cool. So I imagine that if someone would spend a bit of time really improving the default visualziations then we would get something really cool. Now everybody focuses on his little papers and we get the wonderful 4 lines scripts visualisation. Stef
