I've played with OmniGraffle since it first appeared along side Mac OS X. I decided it was time to buy a pro license when version 4.0 was released. I love the program, except how it handles fonts.

Maybe it's me, maybe it's Mac OS X, but I can't seem to get it to display the font Symbol in the Greek characters one would expect from today's GUI. What I mean is that I might already type the text in a text object, then activate the Fonts Inspector and select any of the fonts to see the text change font style, except the native Mac Symbol font. It doesn't change from a Roman font to the Greek font.

I've used the International system pane menu to select Greek, and if I create a new text object and type, it's Greek (or Symbol) characters; however, if I change that text to, say, Times using the Fonts Inspector, it stays Greek!

Is it me, or is this non-Mac program-like behavior in OmniGraffle?

Overall the program is near perfect but this simple break from 11 plus years of Mac GUI computing is frustrating.
