The better way (though more programming-intensive at first) would be to make an SVG importer for Dia. If you like, take a look at the XFig importer and copy structure from there. It may seem roundabout, but a) it allows us to import *any* SVG file, and b) we can use Dia in conversion mode to make the shapes. -Lars -- Lars Clausen (http://shasta.cs.uiuc.edu/~lrclause)| H�rdgrim of Numenor "I do not agree with a word that you say, but I |---------------------------- will defend to the death your right to say it." | Where are we going, and --Evelyn Beatrice Hall paraphrasing Voltaire | what's with the handbasket? _______________________________________________ Dia-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/dia-list
