Re: DIA function

[Michael Ross <michael e ross gmail com>]

Thomas,

I am not sure, but shape rotations may be in a future release.  Certainly a lot of people welcome that feature.

You can work around this by resorting to another program like GIMP2, or even Picasa.  Screen dump the shape, then make copies at desired rotations with Inkscape or GIMP.  Insert these as images.  You can group a connection point with the image for attachment purposes.

I will often make a "storage Dia" and put things like this in there for quick copy and paste.

Hello to all,

 

I work for several weeks with DIA and I pretty much love it. Mainly I create P&ID s. There is only one feature I really miss: The possibility to turn/spin elements and text in angle you need. That means if I construct a new component I have to create a horizontal and vertical version to my own database.

Maybe it is possible to include that feature.

 

In general I love your program. I will donate a amount via PayPal to you. If you want I could send to you an example of my work with DIA.

 

Nice weekend to you

 

Best Regards

 

Thomas
