It is a framework for enhanced user interaction in graphical modeling that builds on the Eclipse platform. This document describes how to install the release and highlights the most exciting new features.

8 +As a bonus, we are co-releasing our KLighD-based **KIELER Ptolemy Browser**. As a further bonus, the next few days will see the first release of our **KIELER KLayJS** libraries that bring our very own KLay Layered layout algorithm to the world of JavaScript.

11 11  Instead of naming this release //KIELER Pragmatics 0.12.0//, we decided to name it //KIELER Pragmatics 2014/05//. This way, people immediately see when this version was released. Also, since the plug-ins and features carry a timestamp, people can immediately see which release a particular plug-in or feature belongs to. All hail to clarity!

77 +* [[KIELER Layout Algorithms>>doc:Layout Algorithms (KLay)]]
78 +** KLay Layered now makes sure that labels of compound node ports placed on the inside of the compound node are not overlapped by nodes inside the compound node.
79 +** KLay Layered now supports controlling the spacing between and around ports through the new layout options {{code language="none"}}LayoutOptions.PORT_SPACING{{/code}} and {{code language="none"}}LayoutOptions.ADDITIONAL_PORT_SPACING{{/code}}.
80 +** KLay Layered now understands LayoutOptions.NO_LAYOUT, which can be set to exclude particular graph elements from automatic layout.
81 +** KLay Layered now understands a new programmatic option for edge thickness.
82 +** When in hierarchical layout mode, KLay Layered now properly places edge labels of cross-hierarchy edges.
83 +** When in hierarchical layout mode, KLay Layered can now compact cross-hierarchy edges as it can compact regular edges ({{code language="none"}}Properties.MERGE_HIERARCHICAL_PORTS{{/code}}):
84 +[[image:attach:merge_hierarchy.png]]
85 +* [[KGraph Text>>doc:KGraph Text (KGT)]]
86 +** The textual language for defining KGraphs now has a lot more defaults. Node and port labels are automatically extracted from the node's and port's ID. Nodes and ports also have a default size. This makes for shorter diagram descriptions.

90 -* The //Layout Hierarchy// option of KLay Layered does not work with center labels of edges that cross hierarchy boundaries. There may also be further problems.
91 91  * The Ptolemy Model Viewer can properly display only a limited set of actors. Other actors may look a lot different than they do in Ptolemy.
92 92  * Currently there is no full-blown user documentation integrated. See our [[doc:KIELER.WebHome]] for more information.
