I believe that where I am putting files (copying exactly how the Automata folder is laid out) is causing me issues, because my stuff isn't hard coded such that the dia-installer can install them.

Questions: Where do I put the alchemy.xml file? alchemy.sheet file? the .png images? Do I need a .xsl file? And, if so, where would I put it? I'm not styling anything beyond what is in the .xml file for shapes. What would I put in the .xsl file if I had to have one? Is putting the .png images with the .shape images giving me the error?

Many thanks in advance! (And yes, I did reread Chapter 11 several times, and still confused on style because I'm using images that I need.) [Reason why I started over, is because I was confused on what I needed. No hurry in responding back! I have lots of time.]

The Arrangement:

User folder --> Dia Symbols --> alchemy --> shapes --> alchemy --> .shape and .png Images.

--> sheets --> alchemy.sheet

I still get the error "several objects named 1e.png" (changed from 1a to 1e). This is when I grab image from the above listed folder.

The Shape's XML file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<name>Alchemy</name>

<name>shape - 1a</name>

<svg:svg>

</svg:svg>

<name>shape - 1b</name>

<svg:svg>

</svg:svg>

<name>shape - 1c</name>

<svg:svg>

</svg:svg>

<name>shape - 1d</name>

<svg:svg>

</svg:svg>

<name>shape - 1e</name>

<svg:svg>

</svg:svg>

</shape>

The Sheet file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<name>Alchemy</name>

<name xml:lang="en">Alchemy</name>
