What's NEW?
Editor Welcome Page
Since the M4 milestone (December 2015), the Papyrus Editor now presents a friendly Welcome page when it has no open diagrams to show (or on demand, if you'd like).
For now, this just provides quick access to some of the most important views of the model. Of course, the content is extensible and probably will be expanded as time passes. The layout is customizable in some degree: drag-and-drop to rearrange panels and draggable dividers to change the size of each panel.
For more technical details, including a series of video demonstrations, see the feature design page.
Name Background Color
The background color of the name header of Nodes can now be set.
To use it, a CSS property exists: nameBackgroundColor. The new advanced appearance property view can also be used.
Advance Appearance Property View
You can easily customize advance appearance properties with a new view.
The new view is not active by default. It also can be found at Window > Preferences > Papyrus > Property View then AdvanceStyle.
New Child Preferences
The activation of new child contribution can now be parametrized with the preference page: Window > Preferences > Papyrus > New Child
