Hi, while I'm a Dia user since some years (and even did some hacking on it), I'm probably not a "power user". Therefore, I need some advice:
I think about using Dia for some technical diagrams (not really technical drawings, for that I wouldn't consider Dia). All technical Diagrams need the same kind of frame with some text fields, like here: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/96/Schneckenwelle.png (lower right corner) http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/99/Drawing_of_Door_and_Latch_Details_in_the_Bolduc_House_in_Ste_Genevieve_MO.png (lower border) http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/fc/P%26ID.JPG (lower right corner) Or here the text fields only: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/03/SchriftfeldDIN7200.png I would like to have some kind of templates, e.g. one for ISO A4 portrait, one for ISO A4 landscape. These templates could be used by me or others. What is the best way to achieve this in Dia? I assume, using a separate layer is useful, right? Does anybody have experience with this kind of application in Dia? Thanks in advance! _______________________________________________ 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
