That looks very promising. I managed to create a small ontology with it but it hung up when I tried to export as OWL, and I could not find how to load an existing OWL ontology.

Theres a manual available at http://coe.ihmc.us/COEmanual06.pdf  that explains everything :-)

But I shall persevere. I like the way object properties are presented and the freedom to lay out the diagram.

Is there a way of defining a relationship between object properties, to define that one property is the inverse of another? I could not persuade it to draw a line between two object properties for this purpose, but no doubt I was setting about it the wrong way.

Its all in the way you drop things, you have to use control keys in the right way(s). And to tell you the truth, it does take a little getting used to.

Also if you happen to have TopBraid Composer you can explore the
ontology via diagrams. It's not free though, and I should say that I
don't have any particular connection with them. However I have used  
it
to view the COSMO ontology and it helps get a good view of what's  
where.
There are also very clear definitions on the text fields defining  
what
each item is.
      

You can also get a graphic view of OWL/RDF ontologies for free (;-)  
using our COE tool, which displays the ontology as a concept map.  
Download it from
