Looks nice. I just clicked around a bit (as I'm not doing often flowcharts in life) and: ; pressing "add node" repeatedly I expected to get them linked one after the other (wrong expectation) ; if I change the type from rectangle to rhombus its center is more on the right breaking the connection lines (bug) ; if I had node1->node2->node3 and I delete node2, I expected node1 to be linked to node3 (wrong expectation) ; after the above action, when I press add node, node3 just disappears (bug)

thanks for the feedback! your expectations make sense, i will implement them. For the last bug, i think what happened is the orphaned node 3 got moved to the top, as a sibling with the auto layout and may have moved off screen.
