Dia Diagram Editor

Dia Diagram Editor, as its name so adequately points out, is a tool you can use to draw structured diagrams. The application has several things going on in its favor: it features a user friendly interface, it comes with a very nice selection of shapes, it is offered for free, and it works on numerous platforms.

And more to the point, Dia Diagram Editor is available for Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux. Putting the focus on Microsoft operating system alone, the application has been successfully tested on Windows 7, Windows Vista and Windows XP. You will have no problems installing Dia Diagram Editor on your Windows-powered desktop machine.

The interface is just what you would expect from an application of this type: the diagram you’re working on takes up the main part of the interface, all the shapes you could use in the diagram are presented to the right, and there’s a toolbar at the top. Even if you have never used a similar application in the past, it should take very little time to get accustomed to the program’s interface.

Dia Diagram Editor’s main purpose is to help you come up with structured diagrams. The simple truth of the matter is that accessing this functionality is a very straightforward matter. Just use the shapes provided by the application, arrange them as you see fit, link them as you want to link them, and the diagram you want will start to take shape. Once you’re done with the diagram, you can save it, export it, or print it out.

As it is released under a GNU General Public License, Dia Diagram Editor is a free application.

Dia Diagram Editor is free, cross-platform, user friendly, and a very nice tool for drawing structured diagrams.
