In UML Component Diagram the linkage between external contact of a component and the realization of that behavior can be linked with the delegation connector. It represent to forward the event from the external contact to target via the specified port. In Visual Paradigm you can create delegation connector between interface (the behavior) and port in following way: Read more
Visual Paradigm support adding diagrams to model element as reference for provide supplementary information to your design. This reference relationship is not just a link defined in model, but also can output into document via Doc. Composer. You can output the reference by just display its name under the model element, or print the referenced diagram inline to the details of the model element. In this article we will show you how to print out the reference diagram inline to the details of model element. Read more
In Visual Paradigm user can define multiple set of working procedure to task and sub-process in business process diagram. The working procedures can be extracted from Doc. Composer and generate into a work manual.
Suppose we got the following BPD and with procedure defined on each task.
Task with procedures defined
In Unified Modeling Language the Class Diagram is a typical diagram for model the static structure of a system. The Class Diagram gives developer a clear picture about how the classes are related to each other. But it only model about the static structure, not about the running instance. For the running instance the Class Diagram is realized by the Object Diagram. In this article we will show you how to create object diagram with Open API. Read more
Defining glossary help your team to understand the software without ambiguity. In Visual Paradigm you can define glossary terms for explaining your models. The glossary terms can be explained by textual description, categorized by labels, and link up the meaning with similar terms using alias. Glossary can be created via the user interface or programmatically with Open API. In this article we will teach you how to create glossary grid using Open API. Read more
Model Transitor is a feature that allows to create ‘transit’ relationships within your Visual Paradigm models, which can be a useful reference in identifying the cause of design changes in the future. The Model Transitor can be generated programmatically using Open API. In this article we will teach you how to create Model Transitor using Open API. Read more
When generating document using Fill-in doc my table always start on new page instead of following the previous paragraph….
Table always start on new page
The local personalized repository allow you to run the VPository features on pure local and personalized environment without access to VPository cloud over Internet. When upgrade Visual Paradigm to new version the local repository will automatic upgrade to compatible version. The upgrade process is irreversible. In case if you rollback the upgrade of Visual Paradigm client it will not able to work with your local repository again as it already being upgraded. In this article we will show you what files need to backup for your local repository and how to restore them to previous version in case you rollback the upgrade of your Visual Paradigm client.

In UML activity diagram the swimlane is a collection of partitions which allows user to group the actions with common characteristics together. The swimlane can have partitions in multi dimensions. In this article we will show you how to create swimlane in activity diagram using Visual Paradigm Open API.
Activity diagram is one of the behavior diagram in Unified Modeling Language (UML) which used to model the flow of control of your system. With the support of model of decision, activity diagram provide graphical representation to present the step-by-step flow of control of your system. Instead of manually create the activity diagram, you can also generate it via Visual Paradigm’s Open API. In this article we will show you how to create activity diagram with Open API. Read more
