[libreoffice-users] Ping Fridrich Strba - re Visio Filters

Fridric, your Visio filters in LO 4.0dev rock! Thanks & thanks to all
that assisted!

I just fired up LO 4.0dev (linux)
Version 4.0.0.0.beta2 (Build ID: 4104d660979c57e1160b5135634f732918460a0
and opened up a Visio 4 file:

$ file TWhse2.vsd
TWhse2.vsd: Composite Document File V2 Document, Little Endian, Os:
Windows, Version 4.0, Code page: 1252, Author: <snip>, Template:
C:\Program Files\Visio\Solutions\Network Diagram\Basic Network.vst,
Title: Network

and it opened nearly perfectly in LO Draw. (Nearly perfectly as some of
the text boxes were shifted over a drawing object, but was easy enough
to drag to a proper location.)

I found that I can copy & paste to a Write document intact & ungroup in
Write & rearrange... how cool is that! Regrouping in Write is a little
like hearding cats, but possible.

Thanks again - Fridrich.

For those that are wondering what the heck I'm talking about, please see:
