The Drawing API is very useful to represent some the ideas in a flow chart form. Any development regards to Drawing API for Drupal 6.x version will be helpful. I can contribute with some advice too.
Look forward to hearing from developers...

There is not much Drupal specific code in this module (except for a few core functions), so it should be a relatively easy task to create a Drupal 6 port. What held me back from further development was the lack of time and interest in this module. If you can contribute in updating the code to Drupal 6, your help is more than welcome.

Are you using this module for flow charts?

I have not used it until now but was planning on using it. By the way, I am a mech engineer so not that familiar with the code stuff yet! But very keen to know, any pointers...

unfortunately my free time these days is melting like the north cap, can't really do much work for this module.

if you are looking for a working charting solution in drupal I recommend you take a look into the chart module. I tried to implement a graphing API using the drawing module, but it proved to be a huge and tedious task. Most likely I will also use the chart API, and provide some kind of link to drawing. until then...

Hi guys, I've become very interested in this module as I'd like to build another module that uses it.
I've ported the module to drupal 6, rewritten some code, and I've moved the SVG stuff to be in another module, rather than an include.

Problem is I have not tested this, nor do I know how to test it, since I've never actually used this module. So I may figure it out myself, but if anyone could supply me with a plan of how to test this module and determine if it does what it needs to do.

Also I'd like to clean up all that theme() stuff and use the #process option suggested in a comment. Would like to be able to manually change the toolkit when using this API too.

wow awesome! its committed, I opened a D6 branch as well. Would you like to get CVS access so you can commit back directly?

Sure would be good as I will be working with it more over the next few weeks so I will be able to fix issues.
