Visual Paradigm Community Edition Description

Enjoy software design with UML, DFD, ERD, BPMN Enjoy software design with UML, DFD, ERD, BPMN. Sketch user experience with wireframes. Identify user requirements with use cases. Generate source code and database from visual model. Design object oriented software with Unified Modeling Language (UML), an industry standard for specifying, visualizing and documenting the various aspects of software system. Features: * Use case diagram Capture functional requirements with UML use case diagram. Each use case in a use case diagram represents a high level system function that yields a measurable result of values. (UML) Actors are connected with use cases to represent the roles that interact with the functions. - Model business actor and use case Model people or external system with business actor. Model business functions with business use case. - Elaborate use case with sequence diagram Add sub sequence diagram(s) to use case to represent the interaction between actor and use case. - Resource-centric diagramming interface Draw use case diagram with minimal effort through drag and drop. Simply drag to create a new shape from an existing one. No dummy actions. - Ensure the correct use of notations The resource-centric diagramming interface displays elements and connectors valid for particular shape only, avoiding modeling mistakes. - Design with abstraction, using sub diagram Maintain unlimited levels of abstraction layers whereby different perspectives of system and different amounts of details are exposed to developers. - Quick navigation between parent and sub diagram Dive into the sub diagram through the tiny resource icon that appear at bottom right of shape. Go back to the parent via the quick link. * Class diagram Describes structure of system by showing its classes, their attributes and operations in a UML class diagram. UML class diagram is a blueprint of the classes (code level) required to build a software system. Programmers implement a software system with the help of both the class diagram and the class specification. - Inline class member editing Edit attributes and operations directly in class diagram. Type (and return type) of attribute and operation is automatically mapped with the actual class. - Pinnable connector end Pin the end of a connector for more specific pointing purpose. For example, point to an attribute in class. - Edit multiple association properties at a time Specify all association properties in diagram without going through deep dialog boxes. - Optionally hide class member Show only the attributes and operations that are relevant to specific context. Hide away those irrelevance members. - Display classes as robustness analysis icons , and classes can be optionally shown as robustness analysis icons. - Wrap long class members Keep your classes look compact by showing long attributes and operations in multiple lines. - Sort class members Order attributes and operations by name, by visibility (private/public/protected) or by stereotype. - Add attribute with getter and setter Automatically generate getter and setter when adding new attribute. - Manual class member re-ordering with drag and drop Drag and drop attributes and/or operations for re-ordering. Both single and multiple selection are supported. - Move class members between classes with drag and drop Move attributes and operations to another class by simple drag and drop. - Define states for controller class with state machine diagram Add a sub state machine diagram to controller class for modeling its states and state change. - Visualize related classes from class members Show in diagram the classes being chosen as type or return type of attributes and operations. * Sequence diagram Visualize interactions between users, systems and sub-systems over time through message passing between objects or roles. If class diagram represents the skeleton of classes by showing their attributes and methods, sequence diagram complete the classes by representing the programming logic to be filled in methods\' body. - Drag-and-drop sequence diagram creation The resource-centric diagramming interface enables the creation of sequence diagram with minimal effort. - Reclaim and eliminate space with sweeper and magnet Introduce space in diagram by sweeping shapes to a direction, or eliminate space by pulling shapes towards a direction with magnet. - Draw sequence diagram with keyboard Put your mouse aside. Embrace your keyboard for quick sequence diagram creation. - Automatic sequence message numbering Automatically generated and updated numbers for sequence messages. No manual editing is required. - One-click return message creation With a click, a return message will be created for you, with proper connectivity and positioning. - Automatic activation extension Activations will be automatically extended, following your drawing. - Identify classes and operation from sequence diagram Make the lifelines become classifier, and make the sequence messages become behaviors (i.e. operations) of class. - Re-locate activation to move associated messages Messages will always stick with activations. When you move an activation to another lifeline, the attached messages will follow. - Generate communication diagram Save effort by generating a communication diagram that conforms to your sequence diagram. * Communication diagram Collaboration between objects in runtime can be modeled with a UML communication diagram. In a communication diagram, objects, called lifelines, are connected to represent the need of communication during the execution of an interaction. Messages can be added on top of the connectors to list the calls made from and to those lifelines. - Grouped messages Instead of having messages loosely placed on diagram, they are grouped in a way that allows for simple re-positioning. - Auto-sized swimlane With a swimlane that span the width of diagram, you don\'t need size it yourself. - Generate sequence diagram Save effort by generating a sequence diagram that conforms to your communication diagram. * Activity diagram Use UML activity diagram, the flowchart-based diagram to model system behavior. Partition actions according to the type of participant involved. - Create branch of actions with single mouse click Click once to create not one shape, but a chain of action shapes in representing conditional flows. - Add internal references between diagrams, shapes, model elements Make internal links between different kinds of project artifacts. Those references work both in Visual Paradigm and in any document and Web contents generated from your design. - Add external reference to business documents Maintain reference between software design and the business documents to help find out why a design decision was made. - Mark in shape body when have reference added Glance over a design. The tiny marker that appear in shapes\' body indicates that the shapes have references added. - Reference model element in documentation Insert model element references to rich text documentation. The referenced model elements will be linked and highlighted. - Convert model element to a different type Seamlessly convert a model element to another type, with properties preserved. For example, from UML action to UML activity. - Align shapes perfectly with alignment guide When dragging shapes, alignment guide lines appear so you can position shapes in alignment with others.
