Excellent program, gentlemen!! I love it and intend to continue to use it
big time.
I've already read down the list and have seen that this problem has cropped
up with other users. Here is my version - I've tried all suggestions I've
seen on the list.
After creating and printing a couple of flowcharts (individually), I saved
them. I attempted to reopen them to edit and reprint them, crasho goes dia.
No warnings, etc. I can't seem to get dia to reopen these files again at
all (or even keep running after attempting to reopen them).
Originally, I thought this was a rev. 0.80 problem (had the rpm originally),
so I revved up to 0.82 via source tarball. Same problem. Then I revved up
libxml as suggested to 1.8.6 (via rpm). My current Dia is rev. 0.83
compiled from the mdk source rpm. Same problem at 0.83.
My system is a 92MB RAM i586 200 MHz RH6.1 standard box (with updates per
RedHat) and as noted, I've upgraded to libxml-1.8.6. The saved files look
fine if you open them in text editor. Typical xml-like stuff.
Any hints? Would anyone care to take a look at my saved diagrams and see if
they can reproduce this problem? Note, these are not tiny flowcharts, but
they're also not huge 30 page jobs, either. I tried saving a couple of tiny
flowcharts and these do not show the problem - it's only when I get around 1
page of saved flowchart that I start to see problems.
