Description:I have found this W.I.P. vector graphic editor that is really good for creating flowcharts, as well as any other graphics. It saves both .png and pure .svg
You can find more info here:
http://code.google.com/p/svg-edit/ I have slightly edited the .css to match FO color scheme, cleaned a little the files and packed all in a zip file for easy installation. I chose the nightly build as it has many more features and it seems quite stable too.
Skills:Minimal
Knowledge of the "Hello World" patch (search this forum if you are unfamiliar with it)
Requirements:- Fengoffice installed (1.6 and 1.7rc works well; I can't tell about earlier vers)
- FTP access to your server will be enough although SSH terminal will be faster
- The SVG-editor that you will find attached to the next post (I will update for newer rel.)
- Firefox 3.6+ is the only browser that allows for insert/open local files
Howto:- Download the SVGeditor.zip
- create a new folder in the fengoffice root (yourdomain.com/fengoffice/svgedit)
- Upload and unzip the SVGeditor into the new folder
- At this point you should have a fully functional installation of the SVG-editor at .../svgedit/svg-editor.html
The only thing left is to follow the instructions for the "hello worlds" to add a tab and get your the editor to work from inside FO.
I have added this block to mydomain\fengofficeroot\public\assets\javascript\og\layout.js:
//The SVG edit tab
og.panels.lab = new og.ContentPanel({
title: lang('svgedit'),
id: 'svg-panel',
iconCls: 'ico-svg',
refreshOnWorkspaceChange: false,
defaultContent: {
type: "html",
notbar: true,
data: '<iframe style="width:100%;height:100%;border:0" src="http://mydomain/svgedit/svg-editor.html"></iframe>'
}Good luck
