You can´t right now.  I have plans to make text rotatable, but most likely
it won´t be this coming release.  Generic rotation is even more difficult.

The placement of Python does not matter, Python can deduce it's placement
from the registry - if only the right python2x.dll is found.

AFAIK the last Python version officially build with msvc6
(linked to msvcrt.dll) was Python 2.3 ...

... and I am not suprised but instead *know* there are problems with Python 
2.4 and 2.5 almost certainly caused by the C-runtime mix. Not at compile 
time but at runtime.

I've just tested with python25 and the problem is (as expected) still 
there. But even when building python25 with vc6 there are problems. Like 
the one mentioned in the Porting to Python 2.5 guide: mixing allocators for
PyObject_* and PyMem_*() does not work anymore, see 
http://docs.python.org/dev/whatsnew/section-other.html

Yes, most of the newer stuff is even developed on win32.

Question about DIA

2006-09-22 Thread Michel . Caron

Allo,

I have 2 questions during the creation of diagram with DIA:

Firstly, is it possible to put a hypertext link (URL link) in a diagram?

Secondly, is it possible to write on the line (connector) of a diagram like
Visio?

Thank you for your assistance

Not other than as plain text.

Not explicitily, but you can attach a text object to connection points,
and some lines have connection points, too.  It won't rotate with the line
or anything, though.

Hans

That is very good to hear.

Is there a road map for releasing dia/dia-python.dll and bin/dia.pyd 
with Python support?

I'm happy to try it out and submit bug reports with all versions of 
Python you want to support.

I don't have the C skills to be useful as a Dia developer.

Regards

Mike
