Defining Shapes - Error Message about "Several Object Types"



Hi All,

I'm trying to define some custom shapes for myself and I think I'm getting 
there, however I'm running into a few problems.

To explain what I'm doing - I'm placing new shapes in my 
/usr/share/dia/shapes/MYSHAPES directory.

When I use "sheets and objects" to load my new shapes I get an error message 
for each one that says:

***Error***
Several Object types were named shapes - 'shape-name'.
Only the first one will be used
Some things might not work as expected
***end Error***

I can assure you that I only have one .shape file for each shape in the 
MYSHAPES directory.  I do have a corresponding .png file for each .shape file 
- however I tried changing the name of these, but this didn't work.

This error message is then repeated for each custom shape when I start dia up 
- so I'll get 7 error messages when dia starts at the moment, one for each of 
my 7 shapes.  I can use the shapes without any problem, I'm just wondering 
what I'm doing wrong to get the error message.  I've got a lot more shapes to 
make yet, so I'm going to end up with a lot of error messages each time Dia 
loads.


Thanks for any help.

David
