32 32  This is a summary of the API changes introduced with version 2014/12:
33 33  
34 -* TO BE ADDED
34 +* [[KIELER Layout Algorithms>>doc:Layout Algorithms (KLay)]]
35 +** KLay Layered's layout option {{code language="none"}}Properties.MERGE_PORTS{{/code}} was renamed to {{code language="none"}}Properties.MERGE_EDGES{{/code}}. Its ID was changed from {{code language="none"}}de.cau.cs.kieler.klay.layered.mergePorts{{/code}} to {{code language="none"}}de.cau.cs.kieler.klay.layered.mergeEdges{{/code}}.
36 +** Similarly, KLay Layered's layout option {{code language="none"}}Properties.MERGE_HIERARCHICAL_PORTS{{/code}} was renamed to {{code language="none"}}Properties.MERGE_HIERARCHICAL_EDGES{{/code}}. Its ID was changed from {{code language="none"}}de.cau.cs.kieler.klay.layered.mergeHierarchicalPorts{{/code}} to {{code language="none"}}de.cau.cs.kieler.klay.layered.mergeHierarchicalEdges{{/code}}.
37 +** (((
38 +The {{code language="none"}}de.cau.cs.kieler.klay.layered.{{/code}}{{code language="none"}}distributeNodes{{/code}} property was renamed to {{code language="none"}}de.cau.cs.kieler.klay.layered.{{/code}}{{code language="none"}}wideNodesOnMultipleLayers{{/code}} and allows for two modes now.
35 35  
40 +*
41 +
42 +{{code language="none"}}CAREFUL{{/code}} avoiding node/edge overlaps
43 +
44 +*
45 +
46 +{{code language="none"}}AGGRESSIVE{{/code}} often more compact but does not guarantee to avoid node/edge overlaps
47 +)))
48 +* [[KIELER Lightweight Diagrams>>doc:Lightweight Diagrams (KLighD)]]
49 +** feature composition changed s.t. {{code language="none"}}de.cau.cs.kieler.klighd.feature{{/code}} only contains essential runtime plugins
50 +*** does not require Xtext & KIELER KIVi anymore
51 +*** install our SDK feature {{code language="none"}}de.cau.cs.kieler.klighd.sdk.feature{{/code}} if you need the Xtext binding, for example
52 +** plugin {{code language="none"}}de.cau.cs.kieler.klighd.ui{{/code}} does not register the generic DiagramEditorPart and menu contributions like '{{code language="none"}}Save As Image...{{/code}}' anymore
53 +*** registrations have been moved to plugin {{code language="none"}}de.cau.cs.kieler.klighd.ui.contrib3x{{/code}} that is part of our SDK feature {{code language="none"}}de.cau.cs.kieler.klighd.sdk.feature{{/code}}
54 +*** nonetheless implementations remain at their previous place and can be specialized (subclassed)
55 +
36 36  === New Features Included in 2014/12 ===
37 37  
38 38  Here's a few highlights of what's new in version 2014/12:
39 39  
40 -* [[KIELER Lightweight Diagrams>>doc:Lightweight Diagrams (KLighD)]]
41 -* [[KGraph Text>>doc:KGraph Text (KGT)]]
60 +* [[KIELER Layout Algorithms>>doc:Layout Algorithms (KLay)]]
61 +** A new interactive node placement algorithm in KLay Layered keeps the y coordinates of nodes intact if they don't overlap. This node placement algorithm is supposed to be used together with the interactive implementations of the other layout phases.
62 +* (((
63 +[[KIELER Lightweight Diagrams>>doc:Lightweight Diagrams (KLighD)]]* upcoming{{code language="none"}} ViewChange{{/code}} notifications received by {{code language="none"}}IViewChangeListeners{{/code}} can now be suppressed, see {{code language="none"}}ViewChange.suppressSubsequent...Notifications(...){{/code}}
64 +* (((
65 +KLighD now ships a generic graph visualization that allows to inspect the structure of graphs specified in any format that is supported by KIML.
66 +)))
67 +* The wizard for new KLighD projects received some love. We polished it's UI and generated code and added some tooltips.
68 +* (((
69 +We replaced the Batik SVG exporter with a customized exporter that is based on FreeHEP.
42 42  
71 +*
72 +
73 +It supports semantic data to be added to the generated SVG.
74 +
75 +*
76 +
77 +Color gradients obey to the specified rotation angle.
78 +)))
79 +)))
80 +* (((
81 +[[KGraph Editor Product>>doc:Standalone KGraph Editor]]
82 +* (((
83 +Layout options can now be configured using a textual DSL.
84 +)))
85 +* (((
86 +GrAna analyses can be specified using a textual DSL and executed either via the UI or headlessly.
87 +)))
88 +)))
89 +
43 43  === Important Bugs Fixed in 2014/12 ===
44 44  
45 45  Among others, the following bugs were fixed in version 2014/12:
46 46  
47 47  * [[KIELER Layout Algorithms>>doc:Layout Algorithms (KLay)]]
95 +** Computing layouts with the layout direction set to {{code language="none"}}UP{{/code}} failed for compound nodes in KLay Layered.
96 +** KLay Force allowed the object spacing to be zero, which does not make sense and, more importantly, crashed the algorithm.
97 +* [[KGraph Text>>doc:KGraph Text (KGT)]]
98 +** Converting KGX files into the KGT format failed when certain properties were set.
99 +* [[KIELER Lightweight Diagrams>>doc:Lightweight Diagrams (KLighD)]]
100 +** We fixed an issue where the allocated memory of views was not released properly.
