17 -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!

38 -The 2014/05 release of KIELER Pragmatics continues our efforts to redesign our core APIs, KIML and KLighD. **It includes a number of API-breaking changes, so beware of upgrading to this release if you currently do not have time to adapt your code accordingly.** You can find a list of solved tickets for this release at [[our issue tracking system>>url:http://rtsys.informatik.uni-kiel.de/jira/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=10400&version=10700||shape="rect"]].

49 -Renamed LayoutDataService to LayoutMetaDataService and renamed ILayoutData to ILayoutMetaData in order to avoid confusion with the KLayoutData meta model and the respective interface.
50 -)))
51 -* Removed generic type argument from LayoutOptionData.
52 -* (((
53 -ILayoutConfig: renamed API method enrich() to getContextValue(..), renamed getValue(..) to getOptionValue(..), renamed setValue(..) to setOptionValue(..), renamed clearValues() to clearOptionValues(..) – see [[doc:Configuring Automatic Layout]] for more details.

56 -IDiagramLayoutManager does not inherit from IAdapterFactory anymore; adapter values are now accessed with layoutManager.getDiagramConfig().getContextValue(..)
57 -)))
58 -* (((
59 -Graphiti bridge: moved some methods from KimlGraphitiUtil to GraphitiDiagramLayoutManager in order to allow easier adaptation in subclasses. Furthermore, we now differentiate margins (spacing to visible part of a node) and insets (spacing to nested subgraph).

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 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.

58 +Among others, the following bugs were fixed in version 2014/10:

60 +* [[KIELER Layout Algorithms>>doc:Layout Algorithms (KLay)]]
61 +** In KLay Layered, the polyline edge router could produce results where edges overlapped nodes.
62 +** In KLay Layered, the polyline edge router could produce weird results when more than one edge leaves a given port.
