Roassal to ODG

Hi all,

Is there any project for exporting Roassal to ODG (vector graphic format from open document format standard)? The closest thing I could find is RTPDFExporter (the generated PDF can be opened using (Libre/S/G)Office suite).

If there no such exporter, how difficult should it be to build one, compared to RTPDFExporter?

TIA

Arturo

Hi Arturo

I have no idea about the answer. But hello from snowy France :)

Re: Roassal to ODG

There is SVG exporter.

I've never heard about ODG, is it commonly used outside of OpenOffice itself?

Yes, I'm aware of that.

Not much, you are right.

SVG should suffice, my point is generating a kind of flowcharts that may need manual edition.

When I open the generated SVG, reasonably , every piece of the graphic is separated (you know

simple arrow is three separated lines, and things like that)...

I would like to generate something like a Visio drawing... but in the open source world... so I though

generating an ODG would be a good alternative.

I'm not familiar with SVG details, if it is possible to group shapes and lines that would be OK.

So I want to re post my question:

"What is the best option to generate an editable flow chart from Pharo (Roassal)?"

Thanks for your feedback Peter!

best regards

Peter

There are none as far as I know. However, this is something that can be done (rather easily I would say).

Thanks, any direction?

Re: Roassal to ODG

How do you want to generate the flow? You can create a view and add callback to add boxes and arrow.
Is this what you mean?

I already generated the graph in a roassal view. My intention is to export it in a "visio-like" format, that can be opened by some free (as in beer) tool.

That´s was I thought first in ODG. But it could be anything editable. SVG is not so good, as every single vector is independent, so edition could be a nightmare.

Re: Roassal to ODG

I wonder if there is any way to save SVG from Roassal, so some parts of them can be grouped, as when you group and ungroup parts of a SVG image from Inkscape and similar tools.

Cheers,

Re: Roassal to ODG

Yes, SVG can be generated from Roassal.

Thanks for the grouping idea, that would fit my need.

I will take a look at it, maybe grouping can be added to Roassal svg export.
