in technical drawings it is common practise to break lines when they
cross each other on the drawing (no connection between these lines). I
found a solution to achieve this in dia, too:
    

That's a cool thing to do. I never bothered about overlapping lines
before because Dia doesn't have such a feature. But now that I see
your examples, I think I'll do that too ... the diagram looks nicer.

Ideally this should be a feature in Dia itself ... until that happens
this workaround is very useful. In another thread Christian had
mentioned creating examples on the Dia homepage ... you should do that
too! Just for the sake of people who would like it when they see it.

Hi Sameer,
thanks for the hint, yes I would like to contribute my examples to the dia homepage.
There is no specific addressee mentioned neither on http://live.gnome.org/Dia/Examples nor on http://live.gnome.org/Dia/Contact. Do I just post them on the dia list?
In png format?

The former examples belong to a confidential project, but I will provide you with other examples on broken lines in the near future.
