I have the same
question.
I am looking
for an open source alternative for commercial software like
Visio. I’ve researched quite a few diagraming tools. Dia
is the one that has the most of the features that I am
looking for. The converter from Visio to SVG is something
that’s really appealing because we have a lot of existing
diagrams in Visio format. But when I tried to use it on
Windows, it seems to crash a lot for some reason. I’ve
played with Dia for quite few hours, and everytime when I
try to create new shapes or sheets it will crash. I can
send out more detailed bug report later, but in the
meantime, it would be good to know whether this is still in
active development.
BTW, is there a
good up-to-date tutorial on creating new shaps and sheets?
Not via the GUI interface, but rather a guide on what each
of the XML tag mean in the shape files.
