Just what I needed

As an engineering manager, I always have to create presentations and work on design problems. Before Scapple, my workflow was to scribble all my ideas down on paper and then transfer them into Powerpoint. The problem was that my paper would become cluttered as I continued to add content and it became difficult to keep my ideas organized and connected. Not to mention that my handwriting is not all that great and that made it difficult to even read back what I wrote. Scapple solved all of these issues as now I have an unlimted canvas for my thoughts and I can connect my ideas in any fashion. I researched tradtional mind mapping applications but they are too structured and not freeform like Scapple.

A couple of feature request - It would be nice to have a few built-in background textures and it would be nice to have keyboard shortcuts for the Notes->Align and Distribute functions as I use those a lot.

Great job and great app!
