  • This is a perfectly competent diagram editor and I found it very nice until I discovered an online diagramming tool that is more convenient to use wherever I go (check out Lucidchart). Still, it's good to have this little gem on demand when I need it.

  • Works as expected in MAC OS. But it needs XQuartZ. I was looking for a simple app to help generate Flowcharts. This does it perfectly well. Thank you and keep up the good work.

  • Dynamic Library Linking is broken for Mac OSX Yosemite. Either this or environment in xterm is totally broken and Dia.app has big trouble with that. But it is very sad, Dia has not updated since yosemite is out. You should Mac OSX remove as an supported OS on this download site and tell the truth, that you give a sh**, get it working on Mac OSX.

  • I hate to down-rate the entire project because of the installer, but ... why in the heck do you need to install XQuartz if you've got the latest version of OS X? From the XQuartz site: "Together with supporting libraries and applications, it forms the X11.app that Apple has shipped with OS X since version 10.5." I have 10.9.4, so it's already installed. Why doesn't the program find it?

  • Hi, First I struggled because I thought the paper sizes did not match, but when setting all margins to zero then everything works fine. Great tool! (especially when it's free.) Note: I like to use very small symbols to make many of them fit on one page for flow charts. Small arrow bottom ends looks like a rotated square in stead of a circle but when printed to pdf they are round and look fine. Henk

  • Definitely daily pal on drawing simple diagram. More importantly it is in public domain.

  • Absolutely brilliant. Why would anyone spend £280 on Microsoft visio? This is just as good for free.

  • Works great on my Macbook Air Mountain Lion. I am looking for the Diagram solution on my Mac, originally, I choose Libreoffice, but it's too fat. Then I try Dia and now it's my favorite.

  • In WinXP it died in after 10 minutes.
  • Very useful tool! Thanks. But while using Dia 0.97.2, I could not enter Japanese texts into dia objects through Windows IME. In case of Dia 0.96.1, it's no problem.
  • powerful tool for symbol
  • Good work! Continue developing.
  • Great tool with user-friendly interface
  • Good informal diagram tool. Covers most cases that are more detailed than knocking out a GraphViz dot file. Visio is overkill for me so why pay for a lot of ms-office centric features I will never need?
  • Can somebody please discuss the relation with GraphViz project? As I understand, Graphviz has functionality for image output and its main task is automatic layout. Was there any attempt to integrate with Dia's functionality? Thanks
  • Does not work on Mountain Lion.... it always arg that XQuartz is not install even if it is freshly installed.
  • this kind of tools that are designed to do some special thing are always better that general ones. So I can easily tell all my friends to use it for diagrams instead of any other more famous tools
  • Thanks for sharing Dia. From now on, I'll be using it often.
  • Dia has helped me a lot. Saved me a great amount of time. Thanks!
