OpenOffice.org Draw als Linux-Alternative zu Dia
Aktualisiert am
Unser Fazit
OpenOffice.org Draw can handle basic diagramming tasks, but it is not a true replacement for Dia. Dia is purpose‑built for flowcharts, UML, and network diagrams, with a lightweight interface and a library of standard shapes. Draw offers general vector drawing, layer support, and ODF/SVG export, but lacks Dia’s dedicated UML tools, shape libraries, and diagram‑specific connectors. It may suit users who already use the OpenOffice suite for other documents and need occasional diagramming, but dedicated diagram creators will find Draw insufficient.

- Both support basic shape creation and connectors
- Both provide undo/redo and keyboard shortcuts
Was anders ist
- Dia has a dedicated UML class and sequence diagram tool; Draw does not
- Dia includes a library of standard flowchart and network shapes; Draw relies on freehand or custom shapes
- Dia’s interface is minimal and focused on diagramming; Draw’s UI is part of a full office suite and heavier
- Dia supports exporting to formats like PNG, SVG, and Dia’s own .dia; Draw exports to ODF, SVG, PDF but not .dia
- Dia can import .dia files; Draw cannot open Dia files
Ihre Dia-Dateien öffnen
Dia files use the .dia format, which is specific to Dia and its own XML schema. OpenOffice.org Draw does not natively open .dia files, nor can it export to that format. Users would need to recreate diagrams manually or export from Dia to a common format (e.g., SVG) and then import into Draw.
Von Dia zu OpenOffice.org Draw wechseln – Schritt für Schritt
- Export your Dia diagram to SVG or PNG from Dia (File → Export).
- Open the exported file in OpenOffice.org Draw (File → Open).
- Adjust any misaligned shapes or connectors manually; use Draw’s alignment tools.
- Save the diagram in Draw’s native format (.odg) or export to PDF/SVG for sharing.

Häufige Fragen
Can I open a Dia file directly in OpenOffice.org Draw?
No. Draw cannot read the .dia format; you must export from Dia to a common format first.
Does Draw support UML diagram creation?
Not directly. Draw has no built‑in UML shape library or diagram templates; you would need to create shapes manually.
Will Draw preserve the layout when I export to PDF?
Yes, Draw exports the vector layout to PDF accurately, but complex connectors may need adjustment if the source file was exported from Dia.
