Milestone 6

The milestone was completed on 19th of March 2009

Improved look'n'feel

Selection feedback

265822 [ClassD] - Improve appearance of selection feedback

• Improved selection feedback
• Names of compartments are generally hidden, but they are shown on element selection

Here Class1 and Class2 are the same. Class1 is selected, so names of its compartments are shown, while Class2 is not selected, so it looks like a rectangle:

Diagram Header

265172 Place keyword «model» above the name of the Model
265174 Visual distinction between Synchronized and Non-Sync diagrams
On the first picture diagram is synchronized, so clock-like symbol overlays its package icon:

Appearance of the elements

231610 Improve appearance of the class box
217459 Name compartment too big for Ordinary Classes
263848 Improve appearance of Value Specification
265514 Improve package appearance
265585 Improve interface-as-class appearance
265747 Improve appearance of Package-as-frame
Updated appearance of the elements:

Enhancements in Property Sheets

266284 Allow to edit reference properties using text cell editor
Now it is possible to type the name of an element in the property sheet. After that it will be referenced automatically.
Diagram:

Setting name of the element 'Class1' using text editor in property sheets:

Enhancements in working with profiles

264932 Profiles in 'Apply Profile' action
Now applying of profile is easy. No more 'Load Resource' action invocation needed.
Once profile has been defined in UML2Tools it will be shown in the list of available profiles in 'Apply profile' action automatically.
262227 Allow to create Image element on diagram
264515 Overlay images of applied stereotype

Milestone 5

The milestone was completed on 12th of February 2009

Validate diagram

260738 Add capability to validate model
'Validate' action was added to all elements in the diagram. It works as 'Validate' action from UMLEditor -- runs constraints defined in UML metamodel.
260741 Provide ability to validate diagram with applied profiles
Constraints defined for a stereotype can be executed on a element, on which the stereotype is applied. Constraints are run by 'Validate' action and managed on 'Model Validation/Constraints' preferences page.

Enhancements in working with Profiles

246358 Show image of stereotype on the extended element
252876 [ProfileDefD] OCL Constraint element
253939 Allow to stereotype a diagram
256356 Optionally display language of the OpaqueExpression on the diagram

Enhancements in the Element chooser

258505 Improve ElementChooser in Property Sheets
261672 [ElementChooser] Content of ListChooser
261691 Filter un-applicable elements in TreeViewer
263018 ElementChooser: Select property value in Tree on dialog opening
263278 [ElementChooser] 'Unset' doesn't work

• Now element chooser consists of two tabs:
  
  • Tree Chooser
    
  • FilteredListChooser
    
• The has three roots: Current resource, Loaded resources, Workspace
• Qualified Name of the selected element is shown in Details label

Improved element selector:

Milestone 4

The milestone was completed on 6th of January 2009

Sequence diagram support

230963 Sequence Diagram support
Sequence diagram sources are available in CVS in 'experimental' folder.

Class diagram synchronization

199731 Structure diagrams synchronization
Now, instead of auto-synchronized Class diagrams, that are always shows the complete contents of the semantic model, different levels of the synchronizations are supported.
Elements, which are displayed on on the diagram, can be managed using:

• 'Synchronize' action from the context menu of the diagram
• In 'Initialize Class diagram' wizard

Stereotype support in all behavior diagrams

257458 Add profile support to behavior diagrams

Usability

255532 'Insert' for element in list compartments should create new element
257661 [Diagram synchronization] Add element filter to synch dialog
257653 Constraint: add 'specification' tab to the properties view of a constraint
