A tool to create animated flowcharts easily

I've recently launched https://flowyBoard.com, a tool to make the creation of animated and 3D flowcharts and diagrams really easy and fast. I created flowyBoard entirely on my own in my free time when I wasn't working as a web developer. It's unbelievably hard to be an immigrant, married, and a full-time developer, and yet find some time and passion to build the tool you've always been looking for. At this stage, I only need your suggestions and feedback. You can find the contact information on the website. Please reach out to me for feedback or business inquiries.

That's nice. I don't personally have much use for it, but it looks cool.

I want to point out a couple of things, though.

1. This is just curiosity but why is vertical scrolling with the scroll-wheel reversed?

2. The selection tool has some weird behaviour. If you draw your selection area from left to right and top to bottom it works normally. But if you try to select dragging from right to left or bottom to top, it just doesn't work correctly.

3. The "scan" text effect doesn't seem to work at all. Something appears to be happening but the effect does not work at all. In the tool palette the effect shows correctly though.

4. Finally, a suggestion. For a flowchart tool, it feels very useful that arrows be able to be attached to elements and that they follow the element they are attached to when they move. E.g. you have ThingA------>ThingB with the arrow attached to ThingA and ThingB, and you drag ThingA to reposition it somewhere else, the first end of the arrow "should" follow ThingA's movement and the second end should stay put on ThingB. I know this is a rather complex feature which requires quite a bit of work, but if you take suggestions, this is mine: That to make this really useful as a flowchart tool, this feature is a really important one.

Wow! I really didn't expect to get this thorough feedback! All of your points are valid and I'll add them to my task list, especially that reverse vertical scrolling which I was biased about it and didn't even notice it! :) Anyway, thank you a lot for the feedback.
