Hi

First of all, congrats to all by your best work in AOO. I continue using
and following the community, maintaining the pt-BR translation, but without
many time to work in the project at all.

Anyway, today i have a problem in to draw a network flow, like in MS Visio,
and I found some great stencils, already converted in image and packaged
for AOO. This is the easy part. The hard part is some shapes that haven't
in AOO, like a round square/rectangle with space to write some text as
title (at top).

Take a look in this image[1] and see some squares with "Dialer [A|B|C]". I
saw a page in the wiki[2] that explain how i can add a new shape in a new
draw file, but my question is how insert in the draw bar, inside a button
like of smile.

You would need to do changes in the code and build your own version of AOO. There exists no generic way to add new shapes. But you can collect them in a Gallery theme. Dragging from Gallery is nearly as fast as selecting the drawing tool and then drag-create the shape.


I believe that is a good shape to add in AOO.

In other hand, someone can give me a idea about the filter to import VISIO
files in AOO?

There exist no such filter.

You can define such shape in svg. It is not difficult, svg is human readable and you can use a simple editor. Using a custom shape will be difficult, because you would need to colors inside the shape. AOO imports svg as vector graphic, which is good for scaling. A Svg-image as Draw object -as all images- has a text component, so that you can write the texts as part of the image when you have insert them into Draw and need no grouping.

Kind regards
Regina
