1/2
I've been a fan of Visio since the Visio Technical days before Microsoft purchased and neglected it.
I've used it for things like accurately drawing home renovations, yard designs, and extensive factory layout designs (for nearly my entire career).
So I've been looking to export all my old projects for quite some time. Normally this means I try to export to AutoCAD from within Visio, or export to another format like svg.
2/2
So recently I was pleased (and a bit surprised) to find that LibreOffice Draw opens Visio files NATIVELY! Are you kidding me?
Everything seems to look identical. Objects are joined that should, colours are fairly faithful.
What a great feature! And it's not exactly promoted very well, so that is why I am writing this.
I'll post a few screenshots comparing a document in Visio to a document in LibreOffice Draw in the next day or two.
Give it a try!
