Good product but bad on keeping modified diagrams

Pros:

Feature Rich

Cons:

Hard to Navigate
Reviewed Version 10.2.0
Full Review:
The detecting and drawing diagram is good. Though the diagram is in a mess one can re-arrange it to their requirement. The annoying part is that you now cannot do anything without destroying your time consumming efforts to get your diagram just right. This is because most of the important things you can do on the application redraws your diagram to the messy one. This includes viewing the diagram using a different level. Another example is that if you are in level 2 and you re-scan, newly discovered equipment that is suppose to be in level 3 appear in your level 2 and one would have to delete all of them just so that your diagram is not redrawn. That is frastrating.
