Kivio: not as good as dia?

Kivio: not as good as dia?

I find Kivio quite a bit easier to use than Dia -- especially with the
version currently in the KOffice cvs, which is polished and has a large
selection of stencil shapes, including all Dia's stencils. I use it for my
UML diagramming, my wife uses it to visualize the relations and plots in
her novels.

You can export your drawing to most bitmap file formats by choosing
Page/Export Page -- the File/Export only exports to native or Oasis
format, because Kivio can group drawings in one document.
