Hi Lars, thanks for your feedback, i understand and will wait... Small bug ot announce :
jpg picture joined runing windows XP, during browsing, typing the letter "h" (for example) to reach as fast as possible the folder name begining with "h" instead of selecting the folder "Hommes", the letter "h" appears at the bottom right for a while (about 5 seconds) after 5 seconds, the correct folder is selected.

This would require some fairly significant changes in how objects, handles, connection points, rendering and autolayout is done. Nobody has so far had the time to do this, or the money to pay somebody to do it. Everybody keeps asking for it, though, including me:) > - select all (or part of) layers together, if i like to move all the > elements of a drawing In principle this is easy, but we'd have to consider how it affects all the various things one can do with selected elements, which for instance now includes moving them up/down layers. > - import dxf (real architect drawings, quite big size (100-200MB) > doesn't work This is > - drawing vertical or horizontal lines while keeping CTRL or ALT or > any other key, to guarantee that the line is horiz. or vert. CTRL already restricts movement of the cursor to horiz/vert when resizing/moving, but it would be sneaky to have it do so when drawing to force the initial line to horiz/vert. I usually have been using the grid for that. > - to be able to give a value for length and with from a rectangle, > same for a line or circle Almost got implemented, but we'd need to add some way to update the properties dialog when an object changes (e.g. you have the dialog open and then you resize the object). That requires a bit of infrastructure that hasn't been made yet. -Lars _______________________________________________ dia-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/dia-list FAQ at http://live.gnome.org/Dia/Faq Main page at http://live.gnome.org/Dia
