Better Navigability: User can now click on 'Extends' and 'Implements' links to navigate to corresponding artifacts (Bugzilla 328441)

If there are multiple artifacts implemented, clicking on 'Implements' link will open the first referenced artifact.

Defect with regards to adding several artifacts of different types has been resolved (Bugzilla 328853)


There have been significant performance improvements made to resource change listeners in Tigerstripe (Bugzilla 324197)
These improvements are mostly evident when dealing with a large number of projects or projects that contain many artifacts.


Problems with package refactoring have been resolved (Bugzilla 321409)
There were many problems with package refactoring that have been resolved. Please see corresponding bugzilla for more details.


A regression with generation result dialog has been resolved (Bugzilla 328459)


There were problems with Tigerstripe Explorer not updating when preferences were modified. This has been resolved. (Bugzilla 327226)


In some instances, the class diagram in Tigerstripe would select a conflicting default name. This has been resolved. (Bugzilla 326361)


Support for multi-valued attributes in instance diagrams (Bugzilla 329183)
Multi-valued attributes are now supported in instance diagrams. User can now create a proper list of primitive or complex attributes.

A regression regarding artifact dependencies has been resolved. (Bugzilla 331413)


Problem with respect to adding artifacts using an arbitrary empty space in diagram has been resolved (Bugzilla 330424

Manage Associations dialog can now be sorted based on its columns (Bugzilla 329409)
Clicking on columns allows for ascending and descending sorting of items in table.

Allow instance diagram link direction to be chosen (Bugzilla 222176)

Association and Association Classes can now be dragged from Explorer to class diagram (Bugzilla 247244)
Dragging an association on a diagram will add corresponding artifacts automatically.


Tigerstripe containers (such as projects, folders, packages, etc..) can now be expanded/collapsed by double clicking on them. This is standard Eclipse behaviour that was not being done before (Bugzilla 328947)


Changes to 'Add Related Artifacts' (Bugzilla 328556)
Adding related elements now automatically adds the association between the instances. Action now takes into account inheritance.
