Re: Does everyone make large objects, or is it just how I am using Dia?

(If you peek into Dia main directory, default sets are also separated into sub-directories.) You can put them as deep into sub-directories, as your need demand it, if you compose a very complex, but consistent set of shapes. If you noticed, shapes are not referenced by their location, but by names. -- WBR, Andrey Repin (anrdae...@freemail.ru) 30.07.2014, <14:57> Sorry for my terrible english... ___ dia-list mailing list dia-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/dia-list FAQ at http://live.gnome.org/Dia/Faq Main page at http://live.gnome.org/Dia
Do C Language plugins need to be compiled with Dia?
I know I'm causing a flurry of messages all at once, but I was wondering if a user makes a C Language plugin instead of Python, does it have to be compiled with the program, or does Dia find a library (and perhaps an XML file) in a folder and use it?

Got it, Andrey! I also learned from your sample that shapes could be in subdirectories underneath the 'shapes' directory. Nice! -- dunn On 07/30/2014 12:58 AM, Andrey Repin wrote: Greetings, dunn!

Re: Double 'shapes' in shape files
Thanks again, Andrey! So those were just coded that way because they were automatically generated. It's nice to know that if I don't use the method, my objects will still come out ok. -- dunn On 07/27/2014 01:43 AM, Andrey Repin wrote: Greetings, dunn! If this is more of an svg question and not something particular to Dia, just let me know please! All through the sample files, the shapes have xml like this, with two calls to ellipses, rectangles, circles: ...but I get the same effect with just one call and a thicker stroke-width like this: I really don't even see how the sample files get a thick line from this, since stroke-width:0.1 gives a hairline and the radii are the same in both the calls. Is there a reason to make shapes the first way as opposed to the second? This is a deficiency of Dia's shape exporter. I'm either make shapes by hands (if shape is simple enough, or if I need precise results), or proof-read and cleanup the shape after export (if shape is a complex/compound object). -- WBR, Andrey Repin (anrdae...@freemail.ru) 27.07.2014, <12:41> Sorry for my terrible english... ___ dia-list mailing list dia-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/dia-list FAQ at http://live.gnome.org/Dia/Faq Main page at http://live.gnome.org/Dia ___ dia-list mailing list dia-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/dia-list FAQ at http://live.gnome.org/Dia/Faq Main page at http://live.gnome.org/Dia

Thank you, Andrey! I wondered why all the objects come in at the same size, since I need some different sizes. I was amazed to see your Sector object come in larger than the others. Surprise!

What I really don't think I'll figure out from the samples is the 'xmlns=' part, because I have no samples of what should be there. Just leave the first two lines as they are. They define the file as XML, and specify the root element of the shape/sheet. I suppose I'll lose the xml namespace and the duplicate shape definitions. I only ask such things because I don't want to go back and change the files I create because I didn't know the obvious. I can show a simple shape I've created myself. Practically by hands. Here.
