Discontinued Products

  • The development of the following plugins is discontinued:

    • Document Modeling Plugin (Model-based reports). For more effective model publishing and reviewing on the web, use Cameo Collaborator.
      • To create Views and Viewpoints diagrams using the modeling tool with no plugins installed, use the Cameo Collaborator Publisher plugin or  the SysML plugin instead. 
      • The DockBook Library Profile is no longer available. 
    • Methodology Wizard Plugin.
    • QVT Plugin.
    • Excel Import Plugin. We highly recommend using Excel/CSV Sync or Excel/CSV Import features instead.
    • CSV Import Plugin. We highly recommend using Excel/CSV Sync or Excel/CSV Import features instead.
    • LieberLieber Embedded Engineer plugin.
    • Project Element Counter plugin.
    • MBSE plugin.
  • Web portal reports are no longer available. For more effective model publishing and reviewing on the web, use Cameo Collaborator. You can also use Web Publisher (Simple HTML) or Web Publisher 2.0 ReportWizard templates to generate HTML reports.
  • WSDL Code Engineering and WSDL diagrams are no longer available.
  • C# Code Engineering and C# Professional Edition are no longer available.
  • CIL and CIL Disassembler Code Engineering are no longer available.

  • The News Reader (RSS) is no longer available. The notification at the right bottom corner of the modeling tool will inform you about the new version release instead.

  • The no_install_mac.zip and 32-bit installation files are no longer offered for download.
  • The Project Usage Map Profile is no longer available. 
  • The JavaScript Nashorn is deprecated with the intention of removing it. We highly recommend using JavaScript Rhino instead.  
  • The following 3rd party plugins are discontinued:
    • Cameo Workbench
    • Cameo Inter-Op
    • ParaMagic Lite
  • The following no cost plugins are no longer available in modeling tools:

From Teamwork Server to Teamwork Cloud

Teamwork Server is no longer supported in the latest release. Teamwork Cloud should be used as a product for collaborative modeling and model version control. Customers still using Teamwork Server must migrate their server projects to TWC 19.0 series first and then upgrade to TWC 2021x.

From Cameo Collaborator for Alfresco to Cameo Collaborator for Teamwork Cloud

From version 2021x, Cameo Collaborator for Alfresco is no longer supported. We recommend using Cameo Collaborator for Teamwork Cloud instead.

Detecting Changes in Diagrams During Merge

You can now specify in the Environment Options dialog whether to compare only the direct or all the changes in diagrams during the Project Merge and Project Comparison operations. By default, only the changes made by the user in loaded (open) diagrams are analyzed, leaving out unintentional diagram changes that occurred due to indirect changes in the model. This feature not only eases both merge and project comparison processes for the user since the number of diagrams with changes is considerably reduced but also optimizes modeling tool performance. 

An Environment option to specify the changes to detect in diagrams.

Further Merge Usability Improvements

The model merge has undergone further usability improvements. From now on, changes from the Target and Equivalent Changes are automatically hidden by default, meaning that only the Source changes are shown. As a result, fewer changes need to be reviewed by the user.

What is more, the model merge has been extended by adding a capability to select which ancestor calculation algorithm to use. You now have the freedom to choose a Branch Point as an ancestor for your merges. This is especially useful in those cases when merge results become too complex to understand and analyze due to previously rejected changes. By default, Lowest Common Parent ancestor calculation algorithm is used.

Selecting the ancestor for future merges in the Merge Project dialog.

Report Wizard

  • With a significant improvement in report generations for large-scale MagicDraw projects, Report Wizard 2021x has now been equipped to more efficiently generate reports using Web Publisher 2.0 templates of projects, with less time required and supporting more elements than earlier versions of the product.

  • Web Publisher 2.0 now has the Quick properties panel, at the lower left (similar to MagicDraw), to show the documentation settings in the Documentation tab and properties in the Properties tab of elements selected in the diagram and from the Containment tree. Learn more about the new Quick properties panel >>

    The Quick properties panel: Documentation and Properties tabs.

  • The capability of $report.isEmpty(obj) has been specially improved to check HTML String whether it is empty or not. Learn more about using this report tool >>

  • The multi-field sorter is now available as a function for sorting a collection of elements in ascending or descending order by deploying multiple sorting properties, rather than merely a single property as in previous versions. Find out more about the multi-field sorter >>

  • You can now sort elements by using a tag in applied stereotypes, regardless of being customized. Learn more about this capability of the sorter tool >>

  • You can utilize a new sorter function for sorting elements as they appear in the Containment tree. Discover how to use this sorter tool >>
