Re: 190212 Use of Dia - Export Question

2019-02-12 Thread Eduard Nicodei via dia-list
Hi Peter, Thanks for contacting the mailing list. I've had a look at Dia 0.97.2 and there are a few things you can try: 1. The exported scale is adjusted from File -> Page Setup -> Scaling (Scale factor 100 means normal scaling) 2. Export the diagram as a .png and then convert that to an .wmf (t

Hi Marcus, Thanks for sharing! I think internationalization works only by translating from English into other languages? I doesn't know if it works in the other direction, for example from German to English, though I might be wrong... In any case, I had a quick look at the shapes and they seem

Meson build: status update

Hi All, Just wanted to give a quick update on the meson build port: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/dia/merge_requests/14 This is a fairly long email so best to settle in. 1. Current status: The branch can be found on my own fork (since I do not have Contributor access): https://gitlab.gnome.or

Huzzah! That is great news! I've also been making steady progress on the meson port so hopefully we should have that at some point as well. Zander, I was thinking, would it be worth creating a [WIP] Merge Request with the Gtk3 port so that others, myself included can have a look over it? Or do

Hi Liel, Many thanks for your email, I think you might have too new versions of the packages :-) I have searched for the missing `GBool` type and it seems to have been removed from poppler about a month ago: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/poppler/poppler/commit/163420b48bdddf9084208b3cadf04dafad5

I don't think we need to argue. Alejandro's comment however raises an important issue: "what are Dia's competitors"? I think actually Dia can live alongside online diagram editors such as draw.io and formats such as XML/SVG have nothing to do with it. The reason why I have used dia in the past i

Hi All, I know this has been asked before but I would like to voice my support as well. I saw Tomas Pospisek's (CC'ed) message on the Dia mailing list some time ago about maintaining Dia and getting fixes merged into upstream ("Doing some work on Dia"). I was wondering if Tomas or anybody else h

Re: How to share dia files with an embedded image

2018-10-30 Thread Eduard Nicodei via dia-list
Hi Ritesh, I have looked at the history and it seems that "Inline Data" (embedded images) is not present on the 0.97.X versions. Given that the last Windows version is 0.97.2, it will not be supported there. It will only be supported on the newer Mac/Linux versions. Hope this helps, Eduard PS:
