Dia version 0.97.3, compiled 07:03:59 Sep 14 2014

Is there anything I can do to recover a diagram I was working on when dia crashed? I happened just ask I was about to save it, setting the file name. The whole thing is gone. Does dia keep things on disk anywhere? Is there any technique at all I can use to find the data?

    Found it. Funny dia does not ask to restore it. I was so freaked for a bit there.
    ~/Diagram1.dia.autosave

    Thanks Ryan.

    However, After I recovered the .autosave file (by renaming .dia.autosave to .dia), It seems that I lost all of the layers I had in the diagram. The diagram is recovered successfully but I can't select any sub-diagram on different layers.

    Is there a way to find where the layers or recover them?

    I have solved the issue. I opened the recovered .dia file by clicking on the .dia file itself. The layers were not showing. But when I opened dia by clicking the dia.exe and then open the recovered file from File menue, then the layers were shown.
