![]() ![]() The palette by default minimizes each diagram tree, so you won't be bombarded with a large list. (Blue) - This lists all your UML entities that make up each diagram in your project. ![]() (Green) - This palette lets you easily switch between active UML diagrams in your project without having to navigate the project tree.You are presented with a large white canvas and several minimalist palettes and tabs from where you can kick off your design in no time at all. When you install and run the application for the first time, you are not bombarded with configuration options or project settings. However I can happily say these issues no longer afflict me and my designs now that I switched to StarUML. To top it off, all of the tools also come pre-packaged with the developers baggage which tries to force you to their concept of Software Engineering along with their particular flavour of UML.īoth of these aspects culminate to a lot of frustration and in turn not much design work being done! Even after selecting a different layout you are still confronted with unnecessary functionality. These tools serve no other purpose than to hinder me by filling up my precious screen-space with widgets and buttons. The main cause is that they are full with bloatware that most Software Engineers won't ever use like BA, QA, DBA or PM tools. Sadly with all of them there has been an unnecessary learning curve before you can actually start creating your UML designs. I have used quite a few Software Engineering tools over the years including Rational Architect, Visual Paradigm and Rational Rose. ![]()
