I am very interested by the idea. I will soon need some software to draw coaching diagrams, unfortunately I found nothing both specific and open source. With dia it is very easy to make your own sheet (for example "rugby") with custom elements. I have been quickly experimenting with the idea some times ago. Here are my two concerns: - Elements must not be scalable, so you keep the same ratio for all of them and just zoom in and out. (Is it possible at all with shapes?) - Players need rotation Lars: what is the state with rotation? Any help needed?
