Dia question

["Graham Bartlett" <gbartlett gamet com>]

I'm using Dia v0.90 and am running it on Mandrake Linux. I would like to
know if I can transfer my dia file from Linux to a windows box and run
the windows dia version to work with that file. Is this possible?

Thanks!

Hello:

I am using dia from today cvs. The ps produced has the right paper size
name and gv display it correctly, but when I print it or convert it to
PDF, the problem reapears (letter -> A4). Any idea?

By the way, the cvs version segfaults when I try to export (before
opening
the dialog), with this message:

(dia:31015): GLib-CRITICAL **: file gstrfuncs.c: line 230 (g_strconcat):
assertion `string1 != NULL' failed
Segmentation fault

Regards.

Hi,

As you UML is being discussed my question comes not completely off 
topic. What about supporting statecharts in dia. Is anybody working on 
that? I only see a mysterious icon "create a state machine", which seems

to create a state (rather than a machine). Has there been any progress 
there?

I am willing to help (or even make it happen), but the bleeding edge 
requirements of current CVS scare me a bit...

Right and the icon is for a final state ;-)

I would also like to contribute here. About state machine a good start 
would be
to define shapes for superstate, parallel decomposition, start and final

states,
reuse the existing state (for backward compatibility), transitions (with
a property textfields for event [guard] / action

There is also probably some work to do to get more complete support in
- class diagrams (eg. nary relationships, associations classes)
- activity diagrams (eg. subsystem, vertical fork/joins)
etc (check against a good UML reference card or even the OMG spec)

Another point which was discussed previously is about structuring sheets

into some packages.
With more UML shape, the sheet could become a bit overcrowded and  it 
may become useful
to split the sheet into several ones, redesign the interface to manage 
categories, a set of working sheets,
etc... I wish I could prototype sth... As soon as I get some free time 
to have a try.

Christophe

Yes, I am.

Which version of dia are you using? In 0.91-pre, there are 5 separated
icons for state machines: initial/final, state, activity, branch and
fork/union.

Regards.

Alejandro

As I told to Andrzej, you are talking about an older version of dia.

Please have a look at a recent dia.

Currently you can do that using a message. Let's see which further
things
are needed for a proper transition.

Again, see a recent dia.

Agreed, that could be useful.
