Elevating User Experience and AI Integration - Software Ideas Modeler 14.05

News| 30 October 2023 | Dusan Rodina - softwareideas.net
The recent release of version 14.05 brings a series of enhancements and fixes to streamline the user experience further. It improves UML class diagram to ERD, AI capabilities, Find Results window, and general stability.

A Change Text Color button is now a part of the context bar, simplifying the process for users who want to adjust their text colors quickly.

In the Find Results window, with just a double click, users can now navigate directly to an element. Additionally, a new context menu provides "Navigate to Element" and "Properties" actions, enhancing the navigation process.

The Convert UML Class Diagram to ER Diagram feature now supports UML Enumeration and UML Generalization conversion, with preservation of relationship points and style.

The new version also brings new settings for the OpenAI API. With support for model selection (GPT3.5/GPT4), users have more options in leveraging AI capabilities. Moreover, there's now an ability for generative AI-driven Glossary Term generation. However, it's important to note that access to the OpenAI API is necessary for these features.
