Dia como alternativa Linux ao Dia
Atualizado em
Nossa avaliação
Dia is a solid native Linux replacement for the Windows program Dia. It covers most everyday diagramming needs—flowcharts, network maps, and UML diagrams—without the clutter of a heavy GUI. Users who need quick, scriptable diagrams or who prefer a lightweight, open‑source tool will find it a good fit. It is less suited for teams that rely on advanced collaboration features or proprietary shape libraries that are only available in commercial software.

- Dia does not provide built‑in version control integration
- Dia’s UI is less polished compared to some commercial counterparts
- Dia does not support advanced animation or presentation modes
Abrindo seus arquivos do Dia
Dia files (.dia) are native to the program and can be opened and edited directly. The tool can import Visio VDX files, but the conversion is partial and may lose complex formatting. Exporting is straightforward: choose PNG, SVG, EPS, or XFIG from the File → Export menu. Unknown whether other proprietary formats are supported.
Trocando o Dia pelo Dia, passo a passo
- 1. Install Dia from your distro’s package manager (e.g., apt install dia).
- 2. Open your existing .dia files directly; if you have Visio files, try File → Import → Visio VDX and adjust any missing elements.
- 3. Recreate any custom shapes by editing the XML libraries in ~/.dia/ or /usr/share/dia/
- 4. Export diagrams to PNG/SVG for sharing or embedding in documents.
Principais recursos do Dia
- Símbolos padrão de fluxograma e ícones de rede

- Exportação para PNG, SVG, EPS e XFIG
- Importação do formato VDX do Visio (limitado)
- Bibliotecas de formas personalizadas via XML
- Alinhamento e guias de grade
- Gestão simples de janelas SDI
