Hardly any changes, Steve. Virtually all the added features are for the graphic, mindmapping part of the program. The only new feature for outlines was extremely minor. I.e., you can now add a check-box next to each outline header.

One thing I like about NoteMap is that you can at least attach a substantive comment to each outline header which appears in the outline margins. Better than a crummy little checkbox. Still (sounding like a broken record) it is far short of Grandview’s cross-referencing power where each individual outline header could be associated with many, many different (database) fields, each of which could in turn have an unlimited number of user-defined values.

Damn! I was never that big a user of cloning or mark-and-gather features in Grandview but that cross-referencing feature was really slick.
