Diagrams that have been edited on a Windows computer are corrupt once I try to use them on Linux. I get various error messages trying to open the files, most of the time they still open but the shapes and lines are all messed up, but I even have witnessed segmentation faults.Without either more specific bug description or a diagram which would allow to reproduce the misbehaviour real diagnosis will be near impossible.
For some reason I am not able to reproduce this myself now. It's possible that I accidently used the older version of dia (0.92.2) to work on the diagrams before using version 0.94, possibly leading to the errors (?). It would be a nice feature if dia would pop up a warning message when trying to parse diagrams that are too new. Anyway, the error message was something along the lines of "could not parse rectangle" and on the the console I could see several messages complaining about invalid points.
I get a _differerent_ kind of corruption, the layout is correct, but some of the strings are really really small, almost a line.http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=153609
We do not use multiline text fields, as described in the bug report. We use the UML shapes. I attach an example where this happens on my computer. I saw this happen also on an arch linux box with gnome 2.10, using the latest stable releases of libraries needed. Same problem.
Export on Windows leads to a crash as already described in bugzilla.Bug number?
The bug 150813 talks about crashes on windows. I can't confirm the register values as I don't have access to a windows machine right now. The crash happens when using eps-pango, when using plain eps dia does not crash, but the eps file produced does not contain valid post script, at least ghostview domplains about errors. And the rendered result is blank, no lines/boxes at all. Please let me know if you need more information, I will be online this afternoon working on the project. It *looks* like using a backup copy of the diagrams we've got and only working with dia 0.94, using only latin1 eps export might work for us. At least I hope so. ;-) - Björn
