1 THIS LIST IS PROBABLY OUT-OF-DATE, AND SHOULD BE REVIEWED OR
2 REMOVED. NEW FEATURES DESIRED SHOULD BE RAISED AS AN
3 ENHANCEMENT BUG IN THE GNOME BUG TRACKING SYSTEM INSTEAD.
7 * Find all places which handle (currently 8-bit) character strings,
8 and tag them for (near) future UTF8isation.
10 * eliminate lib/lazyprops.[ch] (convert all objects which use it to
11 Standard Properties beforehand).
13 * clean up all objects from their baggage; bring them as much as
14 possible to par with modern, Standard Properties-using objects (this
15 should result in much less code and much more consistency).
17 * When creating an object and moving the mouse to resize it. Warp the
18 pointer to the handle that is being moved.
20 * Change cursors more often, ie. when the mouse is grabbed for
21 resizing/moving stuff.
23 * Run purify on Dia. I don't have purify, anyone who has it is welcome
26 * Tab order in properties dialogs. (How do you specify this in gtk?)
28 * If you hold down shift while moving the handle of an 'Element',
29 scale while keeping same proportions.
31 * Is there a better way to calculate font-properties? Rendering 100 pixel high
34 * Accelerators for buttons in the toolbar.
38 * render_object: better distance_from that can be specified by the
41 * Vector image object (for maps and stuff). CGM? SVG?
43 * Add pre-selectable stereotypes to all UML objects with stereotypes.
45 * Add keyboard shortcuts in the "UML - Class" properties dialog.
47 * In "UML - Class" properties dialog. Scroll to the end of the
48 properties list when new properties are added. Same thing with
51 * Add some kind of 'plug-in api' so that libraries like uml can add new
52 functions to the menus (like: load UMX or export SQL ). This is the
53 reason that DiagramData was broken out of Diagram and moved to
55 [ this has partly been done with the export filters interface. More
56 to come with adding menu items and such -- James. ]
58 * Implement guides. Probably swipe the guide implementation from
61 Interesting Stuff from the real Visio:
62 ======================================
63 This part contains some stuff that exist in the Windows program
64 Visio. These are not on my "TODO" list for stuff to be implemented
65 right now, but they are nice to have around in case someone wants to
66 work with Dia and needs ideas for new cool stuff.
68 * Move connection points
73 * Editing of groups in a separate window
76 * Rotate stuff, to complex to be implemented in this version.
