Enterprise Architect Corporate Edition v15.2 (Build 1555)

• Element Reviews
  • Review Manager window now includes a Priority column for review topics.
  • Review Manager window no longer displays a status and duration below each Review Element.
  • Renamed 'Set : General Items' to 'General' in the Review Manager window.
  • Review Diagrams are no longer added by default when creating a Review Element.
  • Review tab of Collaborate window no longer shows text '0 of 0 Approvers' when no approvers are defined.
  • Review Element properties are now displayed in the Properties window.
  • Renamed context menu items 'Create Review Topic' to be 'Create Review'.
• Collaboration
  • Administrators group members can now join any security chat group and get chat notifications.
  • Comments Editor now offers extra font options for the selected text:
    • Set a specific font face.
    • Remove character formatting.
    • Restore the default font to the selected text.
  • Comments Editor load when entering control has been optimized.
  • Collaboration Diagrams will now display Chat icons for elements in different packages.
  • Collaborations window now provides an option to get updates automatically for local project files.
  • Collaborations Reviews & Discussions Preview window now maintains selection during automatic refresh.
• External Simulation Integration
  • Validation of ConstraintBlocks before simulation now allows ConstraintBlocks composed of other ConstraintBlocks.
  • Generation for Modelica Simulation now allows generation of initial value for nested properties.
  • Generation Simulink simulation now uses the correct name for existing reference blocks.
  • Simulation updated to ensure that log messages are shown.
• Simulation Solvers
  • The Solver class can now be configured to use MATLAB or Octave under either Wine or Linux.
• Diagramming
  • Diagram References now provide an easy mechanism to move elements between packages and diagrams:
    • By default when you drop an element onto a reference you are now prompted to move the element to the Diagram, Package, Both or create a link on the target diagram.
    • The Diagram Frame context menu allows you to select a different default behavior.
  • Layout of Nested Ports improved:
    • Ensures child ports are always bound to an edge of the parent during move.
    • Ensures child ports will maintain the same edge during resize and move.
  • Dropping an Operation from the Browser onto a classified ActivityPartition will now create a CallOperationAction.
  • Classifier Selection now allows selection of StateMachine and Interaction elements.
  • Validation of State Transitions to Terminate nodes improved.
  • State Transition properties now allows you to change between two Signals with the same name.
  • Metamodel constraints no longer add sequence messages as suggested quicklinker items on non-sequence diagrams.
  • Metamodel constraints no longer provide the option of creating a new lifeline on non-sequence diagrams.
  • Metamodel constraints no longer provide the option of creating a new instance using a non-instance type.
  • Shape Scripts will now print the name of the referenced element when printing RefGUID tagged value.
  • Disabling of Custom compartments for a diagram will now be set correctly.
• Kanban
  • Kanban lanes can now be marked as 'Not-bound':
    • This means that adding an element to that lane will not change the bound property for that element.
  • Default Kanban lanes no longer assign the bound property to the column title.
  • Moving an element to a Bound Kanban lane now shows a menu allowing you to confirm the change.
  • Unbound option for Kanban lanes renamed to Sub-bound to better reflect what the option does.
  • Kanban binding can now be set as read-only:
    • This results in an easy overview of the binding without un-intended changes being made.
  • Kanban Properties dialog improved:
    • Keyboard-only navigation and editing is now possible.
    • Diagram is now returned to original state when dialog is canceled.
    • Dialog no longer marks the diagram as changed when it is opened.
    • Search filters list control is now consistent with the list controls in other places.
  • Kanban properties dialog now available from the Browser diagram context menu.
  • Diagrams bound to a tagged value now update the docked properties window automatically.
  • Newly added elements from Kanban search are now sized to include the displayed tagged values.
• XMI Import/Export
  • XMI Import with Strip GUIDs now keeps synchronization between connector properties and elements.
  • Diagram Images generated during XMI Export will now render Diagram Frames correctly.
  • Import of EMX files including diagrams updated to prevent issues.
  • Improvements to the import of MDZIP files:
    • Initial and ShallowHistory PseudoState elements now import correctly instead of becoming a Synchronization.
    • State Regions are now correctly mapped with the contained elements referencing that region.
    • State Transitions are now imported complete with the referenced Trigger and Signal.
    • Association Roles are no longer imported as a Part.
    • RequiredInterface and ProvidedInterface elements on a Port can now be imported.
    • InterfaceRealization connector can now be imported.
• Other
  • Active Directory integration improved:
    • Importing Active Directory users now uses 'User Principal Name'.
    • Auto login will now attempt to match both 'User Principal Name' and legacy NetBIOS\SAMUsername formats.
    • New option added. 'Allow non-domain users (insecure)'. This is off by default when enabling security but existing models it will be on.
  • Structured tagged value changes made in the Properties window are now saved.
  • JavaScript Simulation now truncates strings that exceed the maximum length of a trace message.
  • JavaScript Simulation now handles string values correctly regardless of the case of the type.
  • Visibility Levels on Microsoft SQL Server models no longer cause deadlock during native XML import and Browser copy and paste.
  • Professional Edition no longer shows menu items for these disabled features:
    • Dynamic Charts.
    • JavaScript console.
    • Custom Drawing Style.
    • Collaborate Links.

Note: Some updates may not be available in every edition of Enterprise Architect.
