Hi, I tried to make use of the new can-parent element submitted by Hans Breuer in rev b27a03ffe36e94f1a492cf817e9d25d5f37f1040 .
I'd like to use this feature to create shapes for a workflow-kind-of project LogHarvester, which is configured through XML. I'd use dia together with XSL to allow graphical configuration for the workflow. The important part is that I need shapes contained within shapes, kind of like the UML package does allow other packages to be placed in it. This is then represented in the sheet XML as <dia:childnode parent="O*"/> I'd like to avoid coding if possible and try to use the .shape XML first and I found this recent addition of can-parent element in shape_info.c, which I though was precisely what I need, but alas it doesn't work for me. All I tried was adding the can-parent element to a copy of the perfect square shape. All is fine except that it doesn't play the role of the parent - ie, the can-parent element is ignored. <can-parent /> I have updated from GIT to the most recent version and I have checked that the change b27a03ffe36e94f1a492cf817e9d25d5f37f1040 is indeed included in the updated source. I have recompiled and run the new binary. Is it possible I missed something or is this supposed to work at all?
