Latest BPMN 1.1 Notation Support
In BPMN 1.0, only Pools can have its own lane(s) as the separate compartment(s) whereas lanes had their title in the lane itself. In BPMN 1.1 nested lanes notation was added in the specification, so that lane can have its own compartments as well and supported by the new release of Logizian (formerly BP-VA). In addition, the catch-and-throw events notation is also supported by the Business Process Diagram.
Starting Up Enterprise-Scale Project in a Few Seconds not Minutes
Although Visual Paradigm has been the leader in the modeling tool market, and is know to be the best in product performance. We are still making every effort for striving for excellent in product performance, especially its startup and loading speed to fulfill the nowadays demanding business. A huge VP project with several thousand of shapes, would require to be started up in about couple minutes of time in the past; but for this new version, with the same hardware configuration, it is talking about a matter of a few seconds, resulting from our unique system architecture and fast loading technology.
Display Stereotyped Model Elements As Image Icon
Stereotypes is extensibility mechanisms in UML which allows designers to extend the vocabulary of UML in order to create new model elements, derived from existing ones, but that have specific properties that are suitable for a particular problem domain or otherwise specialized usage.
For example, when modeling a network you might use a image icon (a symbol) for representing routers and hubs. By using stereotyped nodes you can make these things appear as primitive building blocks and make the specification much more comprehensible.
Import Visio Diagrams into Visual Paradigm
Visio is a widely used diagramming tool in the market, which was also a favorite for many of our users. However after they adopted Visual Paradigm and experience its unbeatable editing capability, most of them requested for converting the legacy diagrams created by Visio to Visual Paradigm project.
In this new release, import Visio to Visual Paradigm in no longer a dream. Just a matter of a few clicks, your legacy diagram will be imported to Visual Paradigm and all the color and style which you created in Visio can be retained. Or alternatively, you can switch to the Visual Paradigm's default style of your choice.
Show or Hide Diagram Elements on Demand
Enterprise applications development often require to deal with complex diagrams which could sometime grow too large for manipulations. For example, We would like to highlight only a group of classes in a class diagram for presentation or printing temporarily. In this new release, the Show and Hide Diagram Element feature allows you to show only those elements on the diagram plane which you are interested for performing some operations more conveniently in a temporary state and later you can make them visible again for the normal operations.
Improve Traceability using Element Based revision history
Element based revision history is introduced to enhance the traceability as the diagram evolved from one version to other. A list of changes will be automatically recorded, making it easier to advice users of the information on how it has changed from version to version. The ability to track changes promotes accountability and makes it easier to find the right person to solve problems in the materials maintained.
