A new edition of UML Designer is now available.
The 4.0 version of this Open Source modeler, integrated within Eclipse, was developed by Obeo with Sirius. Thanks to this Open Source technology, this modeling tool can be very easily extended and customized to any kind of use. So, it is possible to add a new type of UML representations or to combine the UML standard with more specific modeling approaches to a domain.
This new version, the first one based on Sirius, improves the customization capabilities with profiles, the UML standard mechanism to bring extensibility.
A web portal has also been created to ease the access to the documentation available: tutorials, user guide, developer guide, advanced documentation, etc.
