Diagram Tree suggestions
Last modified: 2019-03-20 11:04:15 UTC
Visio has a tool called Drawing Explorer which is very similar to the Diagram Tree in Dia. 1) Maybe the Daigram Tree should be per document. 2) Groups should be a branch on the tree containing more shapes. 3) the diagram tree should show something about Layers, i am not sure how best to do this, i will need to look at it more closely. I notice that for objects other than basic tools the Diagram tree wont necessarily show icons/pictures or object names.

> 1) Maybe the Daigram Tree should be per document. Made this suggestion on the mailing list and no one much liked it. If the Layers Dialog was enhanced to use a tree view and showed layers, and groups (even groups of layers) like the way Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator do it could be very useful. While I'm at it here's another screenshot of the Drawing Explorer http://www.design-drawing.com/visio/LayVis3.gif
