DB Visual ARCHITECT 4.1 SP1 Release Notes
Release Date: October 1, 2007
Support Bookmark
A bookmark is a named link to diagram or shapes in the opening project. With the bookmark support, you can use bookmarks to keep track of diagrams and shapes and to return there whenever you want to.
Handi-Selection
You can now select shapes from within the range of any of the four sides of the mouse cursor position. Take editing Sequence Diagram as an example, you can right-click at certain position, and select all the shapes below. As a result, you can move the sequence messages downwards easily without worrying messing up the design.
Command-line Operations
Visual Paradigm supports batch processing of tasks by executing commands. With this feature, you can conduct multiple tasks at one time or conduct tasks such as generating report, images and source code repeatedly throughout the day without user intervention.
Support Stored Procedure and Database Trigger
With Visual Paradigm's data modeling and database engineering supports, you can model stored procedures and database triggers, reverse and generate stored procedure and triggers from/to database.
Manage saved Documentation Template
In this release, documentation templates can be rearranged and removed, which makes the templates easier to use by prioritizing them and deleting those unused ones.
Export Multiple Revisions from Visual Paradigm Teamwork Server
Revision is an important concept in team development. A revision can be seen as a snapshot of the repository at a particular moment in time. Each time a successful commit has been made, this creates a revision in the Teamwork Server. The more commits you have made, the more revisions the repository will store. In this version, Visual Paradigm supports exporting the revisions from server. You can export particular revisions, or even all revisions, and open them at client side.
Export Multiple Revisions from Subversion Repository
Revision is an important concept in team development. A revision can be seen as a snapshot of the repository at a particular moment in time. Each time a successful commit has been made, this creates a revision in the Subversion Repository. The more commits you have made, the more revisions the repository will store. In this version, Visual Paradigm supports exporting the revisions from server. You can export particular revisions, or even all revisions, and open them at client side.
Export Multiple Revisions from CVS Repository
Revision is an important concept in team development. A revision can be seen as a snapshot of the repository at a particular moment in time. Each time a successful commit has been made, this creates a revision in the CVS Repository. The more commits you have made, the more revisions the repository will store. In this version, Visual Paradigm supports exporting the revisions from server. You can export particular revisions, or even all revisions, and open them at client side.
Searchable Options
Visual Paradigm products are highly customizable. There are hundreds (if not thousands) of configurable options in the application options dialog box. Therefore, in this release we have introduced the search function in the application options dialog box. This lets the user locate options very easily by using search options.
Jump to Diagram
"Jump To" is enhanced to support jumping to diagram. By locating and opening diagram with "Jump To", you can quickly locate a diagram by its name, which saves you time from searching through the Diagram Navigator.
