Description Dietmar Czekay 2005-06-01 19:48:49 UTC
Please describe the problem:
I create a own shape for european inductivities/coils.
I inserted it into object sheets.
Then i place it into a drawing. Connecting lines etc works fine. But I couldn't
change the font of the object in any way. I open the property dialog and select
a different color and click ok but nothings happen. I reopen the dialog, the
color select button shows the selected color but the coils stays black.



Steps to reproduce:
1. create a own object
2. plac it on a drawing
3. change the line color


Actual results:
nothing

Expected results:
changing the line color 

Does this happen every time?

A nearby problem, I even changed the color of a in german Zickzack line. The
linecolor were changed, the color of the arrow stays black.

GTK2 2.6.4
XOrg 6.8.2
Comment 2 Dietmar Czekay 2005-06-01 20:07:01 UTC
Sorry, the second was a "false mistake", will say an overlay of two lines in my
diagram.

Excuse me,
Dietmar.

These are known limitations of Dia.  

You will need to manually edit the shape file and replace the hex colour values
such as #ffffff and #000000 with default, foreground or background.
