Re: Need guidance about basic shapes

I am not into shape creation, but isn't that what you are doing here - adding text to a shape?

Bhanu wants to add text to a tool such as an arc or line.  Can that be done with the method you have shown?

Hi,
here is an example :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<shape xmlns="http://www.daa.com.au/~james/dia-shape-ns" xmlns:svg="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">

        <point x="2" y="1"/>           
  </connections>
  <aspectratio type="fixed"/>
    <default-width>2</default-width>
    <textbox resize="no" x1="0" y1="0" x2="2" y2="2"/>

        <svg:circle cx="1" cy="1" r="1"/>

Hi,

I am using basic (standard) shape arc in my diagram.

How can i embedded textbox within in Arc shape. Arc is basic shape in Dia so i will have to modify basic shapes in Dia to insert a textbox. 

Dia provides a option to add Text object to an ARC but this does not embedded 

Text with the Arc shape. It makes it difficult to extract text from a corresponding arc from a SVG file.

Please let me know how basic shapes can be modified in Dia
