Thanks. Good to see a new single-pane outliner with inline notes, as there are so few of them. It looks though as designed with a tablet in mind. What does it look like on a desktop?

I see that Aphalina is a daughter company of Perpetuum Software, which is part of Enterra Inc, which seems to be a Russian company with 60 software developers and an international presence. That’s seems to be a different profile from the usual one-man bands and micro-companies that tend to develop outliner software, doesn’t it? Could this be the start of a new trend? Biggish software houses trying to come to terms with the new MS strategy (and the demise of the PC) and starting to develop software for individual consumers?
