Greetings, I have used the latest version of Dia to draw up a floorplan of an existing split-level house.
This was no easy task, as none of dia's built-in widgets have common floorplan-style symbols such as walls, windows and doors. I instead resorted to a combination of lines, polygons and bezier curves. It also revealed (IMHO) a few shotcomings of dia, especially in the area of scaling to arbitrary units. I gave up on trying to make it to scale in the end. Is there any plan to incorporate a widget/shape/sheet (pardon my terminology, I don't know what they're really called) with building plan graphics? I understand that making plug-in shapes and sheets in XML is relatively easy. Has anyone done this? I recall visio having menus where you could insert benchtops, tables, and "Room Measurement" widgets. thank you, Greg _______________________________________________ Dia-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/dia-list
