connection (IE: intranet-only applications).
[NOTE] CSS moved from constants to external files, in most cases.
[NOTE] All GraffitiSuite classes are now a subclass of GraffitiControlWrapper. This change allows for easier code maintenance
and consolidates common code.
And all of that is in addition to the initial rewrite. Those testing the betas have been extraordinarily happy with the direction of the suite thus far, and I hope to release it very soon.
Just a note to say that I just finished adding the following line to the changelog:
[ADD] GraffitiWebTree
That’s a “one more thing” addition 
R21, as well as the new web site, are now live. I’m still working on the documentation, though.
Congrats Anthony, a big job well done
I’ve try to register for web edition but “Registration is currently not allowed.”
Also demo page doesn’t work.
Sorry, @luciano monti Knew I’d forget something! Should be all set now!
Hi Anthony, demo page still doesn’t work.
Is there a web edition demo to download. I need the webtree to right to left oriented to display arabic words. will this work
@luciano monti Are you referring to the demo at http://demo.graffitisuite.com/ It appears to work fine for me. Can you be more specific?
@Sunil Abraham It doesn’t currently support RTL, but I’ll look in to that today.
@Sunil Abraham Is this what you’re looking for?
Absolutely. Can i download a demo and play with it by inseting arabic characters. Once satisfied i will buy it.
@Sunil Abraham Creating a downloadable encrypted source demo takes quite a bit of time, and I’m currently sorting issues with the new web site. I did, however, test Arabic text in WebTree with RTL. Here’s what that looks like:
The demo site never gets beyond “launching”. Using Chrome on the dark side.
@Beatrix Willius Can you be more specific? What OS? Are you accessing it via HTTPS?
I am using chrome on windows 10 and its working fine for me.
