I used it for a flow chart I created. I will say, I’m not sure I thought it was equal to Visio, but maybe I needed to use it more times.

Some of he open source software out there might not be as polished and they might lack a few bells and whistles but all in all there is some great stuff out there for free.

I’ll check it out, but Visio is a pretty high hurdle to overcome.

I’m not sure I need either one...figured someone might however.
To: Ernest_at_the_Beach
I just installed the Windows 32 bit on a Vista 64 bit system. Works fine. Don’t know why you’d have a problem with it.
To: Ernest_at_the_Beach
Thanks for the tip. I wasn’t buying Visio either.
To: Ernest_at_the_Beach
I’ve used dia to actually do useful work.
Having said *that* - it has its quirks and glitches - but I still made a nice network diagram with it.
To: Ernest_at_the_Beach
I’ve used it a couple of times over the last few years. It has the usual X11 quirks one finds on MacOS apps but is perfectly fine for knocking out a quick diagram.

Yea I use a lot of open source replacements, but have yet to find anything to flat replace Visio.
