Dear Robert,

> Is there a detailed tutorial on how to add sheets/shapes to dia?

there is a tutorial, however it is not yet ready for publication.
Nevertheless, it might be of help to you even in its current state.
If you are interested, I can send you a copy.

Verify that the name in the mySADT.sheet.in (object name="XY") is the
same as in your mybox.c (ELEMENT_NAME="XY") and that the object file for
your shape is build.
