The one depicting symbol selection has been removed since it's no longer deemed useful: the status bar hint on startup should be enough. There is no need for a separate picture in the project root anymore.

Introduction
|
|
------------
|
|
This document will guide you through the application and help to familiarize you
|
|
with it. The description of tasks mainly targets the Microsoft Windows
|
|
operating system, though it's also valid for other operating systems to
|
|
a certain extent.
|
|
|
|
Getting the application
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
Download the newest version of the application at the following web address:
|
|
https://git.janouch.name/p/logdiag.
|
|
|
|
[[gitea-download]]
|
|
.The download menu on the project site
|
|
image::gitea.png[]
|
|
|
|
While on the web, look for a tab entitled ``Releases'' and click on it. A list
|
|
of versions will appear with files for download listed under ``Downloads''
|
|
headings. The installation file for Microsoft Windows is named in the style of
|
|
``logdiag-__version__-Windows-x86.exe''.
|
|
|
|
Installation
|
|
------------
|
|
The installation process is quite straight-forward. After the initial screen a
|
|
license agreement is required. Next, choose a folder in which to install the
|
|
application and another one for placement in the Start menu. So long as no
|
|
unexpected errors have occurred, all that's left is confirming a successful
|
|
installation.
|
|
|
|
WARNING: If the application is installed into a folder where a previous
|
|
installation is already located, problems may arise. Although it is possible to
|
|
do so, don't try to install multiple copies parallely either, for the same
|
|
reasons. Remove the current installation first, for example by using the
|
|
shortcut located in the Start menu.

Each diagram consists of objects, and these are accompanied by the operations
|
|
described below. To cancel any current operation, press the Escape key.
|
|
|
|
Selecting objects
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
Select single objects by left-clicking on them. They will get highlighted with
|
|
red color in reaction to this. To select multiple objects, hold the Shift key
|
|
while clicking.
|
|

|

|
|
[[select-objects]]
|
|
.Selecting objects inside an area
|
|
image::select-objects.png[]
|
|
|
|
Alternatively drag the mouse from free space within the diagram into the area,
|
|
see <<select-objects>>. Objects contained in this rectangle will be
|
|
selected. The selection may later be dismissed by just clicking into free space.
|
|
|
|
Moving objects
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
Moving of objects is done by dragging them with the mouse onto the desired
|
|
place. If these objects form a part of the current selection, the whole
|
|
selection is moved. The selection may also be moved using cursor keys.
|
|
|
|
Removing objects
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
Remove objects either by pressing the Delete key or from the application menu.
|
|
|
|
Inserting symbols
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
_Symbols_ constitute the most important kind of objects. Insert them into the
|
|
diagram by choosing one from the symbol menu located on the left side of the
|
|
main application window and dragging it onto the diagram where you want the
|
|
symbol to be placed.
|
|
|
|
Rotating symbols
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
Rotate a symbol inserted into the diagram by right-clicking on it.
|
|
|
|
Connecting terminals
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
A point intended for creation of connections between symbols or other
|
|
connections is called a _terminal_. To lead a connection out of it, first
|
|
hover it with the mouse pointer, so it gets visibly highlighted with a circle.
|
|
Then press the left mouse button and drag the pointer onto the place where you
|
|
want the connection to end.

Frequent problems
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
Can't open a saved diagram
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
When saving, ensure that the filename you've typed in contains the ``.ldd''
|
|
suffix. If not, it won't show up in the dialog for opening diagrams. In case
|
|
you've already saved a file without an extension, you may fix this situation by
|
|
adding the suffix to its name.
|
|
|
|
How do I print a diagram?
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
The current version of application is not able to print directly. To print out a
|
|
created diagram, you may use the PrintScreen key to capture a screenshot, then
|
|
insert it to, for example, Paint, and print it from inside the graphics editor.
|
|
|
|
I miss labels
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
Similarly to the previous case, this functionality doesn't exist yet, but it is
|
|
possible to get around this limitation using a graphics editor.
