Release focus: Major feature enhancements

Changes:
A bookmark is supported for linked to diagrams and shapes. Another new feature is handi-selection. You can now select shapes from within the range of any of the four sides of the mouse cursor position. Command-line operations were introduced for batch processing of tasks by executing commands. Multiple revisions can be exported from VP Teamwork Server, Subversion, and CVS repositories. Sequence Diagrams are the most popular diagrams used for dynamic modeling, so its usability was increased a lot. There are also a number of enhancements for various other features.

[»] Teaser release
by mcoon - Aug 6th 2007 11:41:05

The community version of this product is definately there to tease the user into trying the $300.00 version of the software. The capabilities of the community server are not worth the effort of installation. The cool stuff, like the ability to suck in an existing C or C++ project aren't turned on. <sigh>.

[»] Community Edition

The so-called community edition of this software is actually crippleware. It's only purpose as far as I can see is to try to draw the user into purchase of one of the fully capable versions of the software. Unless you wish to invest in a non-free license, avoid wasting time with this software.
