That model of infinite canvas with objects on it goes back for years in Numbers.
Much more flexible for my needs than Excel. That’s a personal preference, of course.

Hi, ShiJianhui,
How do you find the new release of Tinderbox? I haven’t had time to use it yet.

Hi!
I have encountered only one bug so far, I think 9.5 is a pretty solid update. For me, the most useful features of the new update are efficient image storage (no more need for workarounds!) and ‘Longform Writing’ that ‘lets you select any notes you like and view them as a continuous document’. I haven’t try new action code, as I don’t need it for my work.

It does indeed. The trouble is, the concept of “spreadsheet” has been dominated by first Lotus, then Microsoft Excel for so long, the novel approach adopted by Apple totally failed to impinge on general awareness (despite a bunch of brilliant templates provided with Numbers as a matter of course, which clearly show the underlying object-oriented model).
