version 2.0 (14 November 2000)
--------------------------------------------
- Modified: In the file format of the UML-editors, all specific
node-, edge- and shape types get a three-letter prefix
SSD, UCD, ATD, CPD, DPD (later this convention will be applied to
the other editors too).
- Modified: UML editors:
*Relationship* -> *Association*
*IsaRelationship* -> *Generalization*
*TaxonomyJunction* -> *GeneralizationNode*
*AggregationJunction* -> *AggregationNode*
*InactiveState* -> *WaitState*
- Modified: UML editors:
Each node type-name ends on *Node, each edge type-name ends on *Edge
- Modified: TDPD/TCPD: these editors have now their own node and
edge types instead of GenericNode and GenericEdge. Node-edge
connections are checked now. Both editors can read a diagram
made by the other editor.
- Fixed: TDPD/TCPD: it is now possible to add a name to an interface dot.
- Modified: Table editors: new dialog windows for update line style and
update line width.
- Fixed: TSTD: shape selection and movement did not work correctly

- Added: Newest version of LiteClue (1.5).
- Fixed: When tables editor read a table then rows and columns stay the
same size as in the file (before, the rows and columns could be enlarged
to the 'minimal row/column size').
- Modified: in table editors the 'minimal row/column height/width' is
changed into 'default row/column height/width'.
version 1.99 (06 June 2000)
--------------------------------------------
- Doc: User Manual is updated till version 1.99.

These are used instead of the compile time options -DBUGREPORT and
-DANNOUCE.
- Added: Dialog window with icons for converting node shape types in TGD.
It is possible now too to convert from/to Stickmen.
- Modified: Icons show document name as icon title (instead of name of the
editor).
- Fixed: line-line connections. When a line handle is moved, added or removed
then the positions of the lines that are connected to that line are
updated to accommodate to the new situation.
- Added: Command in diagram and table editors to set/unset text underlining.
This command can be called via Properties->Set/Unset Text Underlining.
The text underlining of selected shapes/cells will be inverted.

doesn't work you will see what goes wrong in the message log dialog window.
version 1.98 (05 April 2000)
--------------------------------------------
- Some bug fixes to make default load/save files in FileSelectionsDialogs
in Lesstif working. Also a bug fix to let Find/Replace work under
Lesstif.
- Some bug fixes and additions to the RPM .spec files.
Most important that now a non-root user can build RPMs too, by
using the --buildroot flag.
- Update of the technical documentation (to be found in
doc/developersguide/index.html, developersguide-1.98.ps.gz).
- Removed all compile warning generated by the new Sun C++ compiler
(SUN CC 5.0) and egcs-2.91.66.
- Reorganisation of the online documentation.
- Latex sources (including bib, style, TCM and EPS files)
are no longer part of the source code distribution. They
are put in a separate 'docsrc' distribution, that is
installed in $TCM_HOME/doc/docsrc/
- Added to source code dist. a doc/index.html an HTML-index to
the various docs.
- Source code documentation (generated with doc++) can be
found in: doc/sourcecode-'version'.ps.gz and
doc/sourcecode/index.html (HTML pages).
- Technical documentation (developer's guide) can be found in:
doc/developersguide-'version'.ps.gz and
doc/developersguide/index.html (HTML pages)
- User manual can be found in:
doc/usersguide-'version'.ps.gz and doc/usersguide/index.html
(HTML pages).
- Various specifications for individual editors can be found
in: doc/specifications/
- The wishlist e.a. can be found in:
doc/wishlist/FutureDevelopments.html
doc/wishlist/WishList.html
doc/wishlist/WishListDone.html
- The Makefiles are adapted to the new documentation organisation.
When you issue 'make clean' in $TCM_HOME all documentation is removed
and when you issue 'make docs' in $TCM_HOME then all documentation
is generated again from their sources (in HTML format, as
gzipped-PostScript and (new) in PDF format).
- For making HTML pages of the user's guide and developer's guide the
external program LaTeX2HTML is used. LaTex2HTML can be found at
ftp://ftp.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/support/latex2html.
- For making Latex pages and HTML pages from the C++ source code the
external program DOC++ is used. The sources of DOC++ are supplied
with our 'document sources' distribution.
- For making PostScript and PDF from the dvi-files (generated by LaTeX)
the external programs 'dvips' respectively 'dvipdf' are called.
- Toggle button 'show indexes' is called now 'create/edit indexes'.
When it is on, new nodes (GenericNodes in TGD, Data- and ControlProcesses
in TEFD) get an index-label. This label can be edited when you
click on it. Also, when this toggle is on, you can add an index to a
node shape without an index. The 'Renumber Indexes' command only
works on nodes that have already an index.
- From now on (click or drag with) Shift+Button1 has the same effect
as using Button2. This is useful for mice that miss a middle button.
For users who prefer to use all three buttons, nothing will change.
- From TCM you can generate PNG-files via Print-->Export.
PNG is a format that is understood by most webbrowsers and by M$
Word. PNG is similar to the GIF-format but less controversial
(see http://www.cloanto.com/users/mcb/19950127giflzw.html and
http://burnallgifs.org).
- Generation of PNG format is done with the fig2dev command that
processes a temporal .fig file. fig2dev is part of the Transfig
package that can be downloaded from ftp://www-epb.lbl.gov/xfig.
- -toPNG <file>.png command line option added to all editors.
- Added a new command to resize a (node) shape. It makes a node shape
larger/smaller by relocating a side or corner on the screen (like
you do in most window-managers)
The command is issued when you drag a node handle with Button2 (or
Shift+Button1). The original resize command that resizes from the
center of the node is still functioning in same way (drag with
Button1). This new resize command is in particular useful when you
need to resize boundary-boxes, subject areas and the like.
- Added command to delete line handles. This will be performed when you
click on an intermediate line handle of a single selected line with
Button2 (or Shift_Button1).
- Command added to 'Convert From/To Curves' (called via Edit menu).
This converts selected curves to segmented lines and selected lines
that have 3 segments to curves.
- The system architecture figures of the developer's guide (formerly
know as the 'techdoc') are updated to the current situation and have
the TSSD (UML) notation.
- The PrinterName option in tcm.conf has now a higher priority than
the contents of the PRINTER environment variable.
- Boolean option PrivateColormap is added to tcm.conf. When it is
True then all editors are started with a private color map.
- New dialog windows for "Update/Default Line Style", "Update/Default
LineWidth", "Update/Default Text Alignment" and "Align Nodes".
These dialog windows show the different options as icons. The OK-
button is called "Apply" and when it is pressed the window is not
dismissed anymore.
- New command to update the line endings (different kinds of arrows) of
a line. Via Properties->Update Line Ends you get a dialog window
where you can choose from the different line endings.
When you press "Apply" the endings of all selected lines are
updated. Note that with this command the representation of an edge
is changed, the edge will not change type.
version 1.97 (20 February 2000)
--------------------------------------------

- Added new command to add edge handles. Drag a handle
with button-2 to add another handle (drag with button-1
moves a handle, like it did before).
- Simplification of config files in $TCM_HOME/lib.
They do not contain version numbers and sections anymore,
but only attribute-value pairs and comment.
There are three config files:
1. $TCM_HOME/lib/tcm.conf contains all general TCM options.
2. $TCM_HOME/lib/tcm.sys contains a few platform specific
TCM options. Options in 2. override/extend those in 1.
3. (optionally) $HOME/.tcmrc contains some user specific
TCM options. Options in 3. override those in 1. and 2.
- Check diagram functions revisited. Many specific diagram
checks are made more generic and added to the DiagramChecks
class in libdiagram. Error messages should be clearer.
Classes RPChecks and TRChecks are deleted.
- The line style of the separator lines in DoubleBox and
TripleBox can be changed programmatically.
- Improvement in text editing inside nodes that are filled
with a color.
- Compiled under Solaris with the newest SUNWspro C++ compiler
version 4.2. Some little changes in Config.tmpl and some
source files.
Version 1.7.0. (September 1998).
--------------------------------------------
- Removed all code of TSOD from the TCM distribution.
- Made two new editors for the Color-X project.
csod (Color-X static object diagram) and ced
(Color-X event diagrams). The specific code
is in directory cx. These tools have an interface
with the WordNet 1.6 program. These tools make use
of the TCM libs but are not really part of TCM.
- Updated the file format (version 1.22). Old file
formats are still accepted however. See user manual,
appendix B.
- Added two option menus to TGD that determines whether
a new node or edge is drawn solid, dashed of dotted.
- Each node can have an index number label. These labels
can be shown in tdfd, tdefd, and tgd. There is a
toggle beneath the node icon list that indicates
whether indexes are shown or not. Index labels can be
edited separately from the name label.
- Text menu is renamed to Properties. Find/Replace are
put in a new Menu named Search.
- Properties has a distinct sub-menu for default properties.
- Properties include the default line width and the
update line width command.
- The Grid menu is made part of the View menu.
- Added some extra node shape types to TGD, like
HorizontalBar and Hexagon.
- Each table cell can have a distinct annotation text.
Cell annotations are added to the table file format.
- Table line styles are the same as shape line style of the
diagram editors. "Fat" line style is removed from the table
editors (you have to use update line width to make lines fat).
- Update line width/default line width commands in
diagram editors in Properties Menu.
- Update line width/default line width commands in
table editor (update line width is not fully implemented yet).
Implementation:
- All DashedXXX classes, Dot, All PredefinedXXX classes,
TCircle, TextShapeXXX classes are removed.
- Reimplemented textshapes. All specific textshape
classes are removed. Instead one single textshape
class is used. The specific diagram classes determine
the relationship between textshapes, shapes and subjects.
- Bitmaps (icons) have new, more logical, names.
- toolkit.c and code.c are moved to libglobal.
libglobal is the only library that has to be changed when
new editors or shapes are added to the toolkit.
- Updated the shape, node and edge codes, names and
classes. Spurious ones like all DashedXXX shape types
are removed and others have now more logical names (well, at least
less unlogical).
- The tool (TCRD) specific shape types DoubleBox and
TripleBox are made tool independent and added to
libdiagram. These classes are reused in the Color-X tools too.
- All 'predefined' shape classes deleted. Instead,
a GShape attribute 'fixedName' is used. When a GShape as a
fixedName the name cannot be changed after its creation.
- Each nodeshape has an extra index textshape as label
(that can be made visible and/or edited in some of
the tools).
- Added generic line classes that show 1,2 or 4 extra
labels, named T1Line, T2Line and T4Line. These classes
have attributes that indicate where the labels should be
positioned by default. There is also a T1Arrow.
Diverse specific line classes in TERD, TCRD, TSND and CSOD
are all specializations of these abstract line classes.
- TSTD's ArrowBox is renamed to InitialStateBox, HLineArrow
is renamed to TransitionArrow. TPSD's URBox is renamed
to URLabeledBox. LLCircle is renamed to LeftLineCircle.
C2Line is renamed to C2R2Line.
- Implemented a new shape in libdiagram: BlackDotEllipse
(an ellipse with a black dot in it). Used in TGD and CED.
- Implemented a new line class in libdiagram: FlashArrow
(an arrow with a flash in its tail). Used in CED.
- Changed the colors and fonts in the user interface.
In particular fonts are made a bit smaller and less colors
are used.
- All specific table editor code in a distinct directory
called 'st' (specific table). This is consistent with the
'sd' directory of diagram editors.
- Updated and simplified the various (platform/compiler
specific) Makefiles.
Version 1.67 (8 jan 1998).
--------------------------------------------
- Changed file format: Each shape has a Color (see
$TCM_HOME/lib/colorrgb.txt), a Line Width (1,2,3...),
a Line Style (Solid, Dashed, Dotted, Invisible) and
a Text Color. Each node shape has additionally a
fill style (Filled, Unfilled and GrayFilled) and
a Fill Color. These attributes are read from the file
but they cannot be changed via the user interface yet.
- Renamed Zoom to Scale everywhere.
- Extra text field next to the document name showing
the current diagram level index.
Version 1.66 (27 Nov 1997).
--------------------------------------------
- Changed Postscript that is generated: the original PS became
too complex for certain PS viewers and printers.
- Bug fix: redo of update text is not always possible but should
not result into a call to Command::Abort.
Version 1.65 (25 Nov 1997).
--------------------------------------------
- Compilations made for some other platforms (Linux, SunOS, Solaris,
IRIX, HP-UX). Adaptations to make files and all small compilation
errors and warnings were removed.
- Bug fix: crashed when diagram part was pasted and then some
text in it was edited.
- Bug fix: edge labels were put back into their default positions
when you read in a file.
- Bug fix: crash after cutting empty text in a table editor.
- Bug fix: when compiled by gcc 2.7.2.2 some menu entries disappeared.
Version 1.64 (7 Nov 1997).
--------------------------------------------
- Bug fix: crash when an non-existent file name was given as command
line argument.
- Bug fix: when log message could not be delivered, tcm hanged.
- Bug fix: crash when New was issued in a diagram editor.
- User manual made up to date.
Version 1.63 (3 Nov 1997).
--------------------------------------------
- Paste cell texts modified: the operation did not look at the text sizes
in comparison with the cell sizes for where the texts are pasted but
it looks at the relative row and column positions. Only the top-left cell
where the box is released determines in which cells will be pasted.
- Separated undo and redo into two different edit menu items.
Undo has accelerator Ctrl+U, Redo has accelerator Ctrl+R.
Refresh gets accelerator Ctrl+V.
- Implemented multi-level undo and redo. The last couple of hundred
commands are saved. After a load or new these commands are deleted
but all the other commands that change something in the graph or
layout have an undo/redo.
- Rewrote the whole tree of Makefiles of the source distribution.
It should be a bit more flexible and easier to understand and maintain
for people who are not me ;-)
- 1.36 is now ported to HP-UX.
Thanks to R.J.J. Jongschaap <rob@uttnr10.tn.utwente.nl>.
- Added some modifications to sources and Makefiles for compiling TCM under
HP-UX 10.x.
- Updates of README.TCM, TCM.LSM.
- Updates of the user manual and the on-line help pages for 1.6.?
- The TCM version number is written as a string to file instead
of a float. Some buggy Linux libs gave problems with that.
Version 1.62 (24 oct 1997).
--------------------------------------------
- You can not change the tree view mode anymore in the tree editors while
you are busy pasting or creating an edge.
- Bug fixed: When an error was found in a file, an incorrect line number
was mentioned in the error message.
- Added extra checks when a file is read which contains wrong references.
It notices shapes without or illegally typed subjects, nodes and edges
without representation, edges connecting not existing nodes, lines connecting
non-existent node shapes. When this happens, error messages are given
and it is tried to end up with a consistent document.
- Improvement to the generated PostScript code. By adding a procedure in
the PostScript output the PS files become a lot smaller when it contains
more than one page.
- Bug fixed: constraints on double edge names were not checked
properly when edge was redirected.
- Manual (Unix man) pages updated for the current 1.6.x version.
Version 1.61 (21 Oct 1997).
--------------------------------------------
- TCRD: soft constraints added: check that an object class is not
specialized into a relationship class. Check that when a rel. class
is specialized, the specialization class does not have additional
components.
- TSTD: an event label string is allowed to contain more than one line.
- Table editors: append table has an undo/redo by now.
- Table editors: the append table FSB has an option menu indicating
whether the table has to be appended to the bottom or to the right
of the table (instead of that extra dialog box).
- "Save selection" added to all editors. In the diagram editors it
saves the selected part of the diagram to file. In the table editors
it saves the rows and columns which contain selected cells.
- Added accelerators for cut, copy and paste cell text. Append has
now Ctrl-A as accelerator instead of Annotate subject.
Version 1.60 (17 Oct 1997).
--------------------------------------------
- Soft constraint on ER diagrams: relationship node name + component
types should be unique.
- Some improvements of the error messages produced by check document.
- TSTD: transitions from and to the same node should contain an action.
- TSTD: fixed: after moving event/actions to another line segment
they were not properly redrawn.
- TDFD/TDEFD: added a toggle button to show process indexes or not.
When show indexes is off: process indexes can not be edited.
When show indexes is on: process indexes can not be empty.
- Limited the number of possible error messages produced by replace all
to one.
- TDFD/TDEFD: Added again the text field to set the diagram level and
which acts as the process index prefix of new processes.
- You can only get into edit mode when you type a _printable_ char.
- Adapted main window sizes and the widget layout to the screen size.
All tools look correctly on screen as small as 800x600.
- Completed the online help window texts.
- TCRD: removed a problem that caused assertion failed messages while
editing class boxes.
- TCRD: When auto-resize was off, the labels of class boxes were not
properly aligned. This fixed now.
- When segmented or curved edges are added or deleted then the labels
of the other edges do not jump back to their default positions.
- Center diagram and center table command also work correctly when
the document is zoomed.
- Check added on document names: they should not contain unprintable
characters, white space characters, '{', '}' and '/'.
- Table row and column labels are now all drawn in the default font.
- When the directory text field is updated then the directory of the
export file selection dialog is updated as well.
- TPSD: everywhere 'order' is replaced with 'sequence'.
- Made the arrow heads symmetric.
- TSTD: Added the immed. constraint that from and to the same pair
of nodes there should not be two transitions with the same event label.
- Tree editors: while appending a tree you can not change the tree mode.
- The name of the document or subject that is annotated is filled in in
the annotation edit window.
- Added point size 6 to all editors.
- When the document is too large for the drawing area when the drawing area
has reached its max. size, an error message is given.
- In Linux the gray fill style (for selection handles) became a black fill
style. This is fixed by now.
- Some more improvements and fixes with the checks or error messages
of check document. They were all checked against the checks that were
formulated in the user's guide.
- Fixed: when a document was started with a relative path name, the
directory part was not removed from the file name in the document
name.
Version 1.59 (1 Oct 1997).
--------------------------------------------
- Possibility to type in ISO-Latin1 characters in in-line editor.
- 8 bit characters are written to PostScript in ASCII format
(octal notation).
- Generated PostScript shows all ISO-Latin1 characters correctly.
- Outline editor size is maintained correctly. When you resize
the edit window the size remains the same when you pop up the
window again.
- When an edge is redirected all relevant edge constraints are checked.
- In TCRD the soft constraints regarding unnamed (component)functions
are improved.
- Bug removed: when the main window was deleted (not destroyed) then
the editor continued to run and crashed.
- The TCM icon is now visible in all window managers that
I know of including olwm.
- The length of text strings in generated Postscript is made unlimited.
- Some small simplifications in the generated PostScript.
- Bug removed from Tree editor. Cut operation led to a crash.
Version 1.58 (26 Sep 1997).
--------------------------------------------
- Bug fix: editor crashed when you Quit and you were still in
edit mode.

update row and column alignment and for update line style.
- Implemented Undo for change box type.
Change box type is an edit menu command.
Version 1.54 (20 Aug 1997).
--------------------------------------------
- Removed all X/Motif specific code from non libgui classes,
except the classes *window.[hc] and *stubs[hc].
Easier to port and maintain?
- The code from sd/ is split into 5 parts (data view (dv), behavior view
(bv), function view (fv), generic diagram (gd) and tree (tr).
- Makefiles for the different platforms are improved.
- Started with implementation of multiple shape views. Shape views are
written to file and read according to the file format of TCM2
(however the are not yet user operations on multiple views).
- Extensive internal consistency checking when a diagram is read.
Version 1.53 (15 aug 1997).

were moved.
- A different arrow head shape is drawn.
Version 1.52 (28 Jul 1997).
--------------------------------------------
- When a dialog is popped up, it will be displayed near the current
mouse position.
- Ported TCM to AIX.
- Implemented find/replace/find-all/replace-all in both
diagram as table editors including undo/redo, case sensitive,
substring and name only finding and replacing.
- Put every class in a separate file (file name =
class name (in lower case letters)). Almost like TCMJava.

(same as Wouter Wijngaards reported ?).
- Removed bugs that limited text sizes in drawing area to
MAXNAME chars.
- Removed bugs that caused crashes with undo/redo after
editing text in a class box/transition arrow.

is not possible anymore.
- Inconsistent graphs: for some reason they sometimes occur:
but now some extra assertions are added and the inconsistent parts
are not written to file anymore.
- Rewrote the code from intersect.h, link.h, key.h, setval.h
into C++ classes.
- Removed spurious comments for doc++ from the header files.
- After a crash mail is sent automatically to tcm@cs.vu.nl.
- Tested extensively with purify. Removed all memory leaks
that were found.
- And a zillion of other changes and bug fixes....
Version 1.51 (17 jul 1997).
--------------------------------------------
- Main window layout, colors, new T(ea)pot icon.
- Moved most X/motif code to separate directory/library
libgui.so (the remainder is in specific ??Window classes
in the other libraries).
- Implemented a lot of special dialog classes.
- Text viewer dialog class contains a SaveAs, Print,
Copy and Find operation.
- Text edit dialog class contains a Load, SaveAs, Print,
Cut, Copy, Paste, Delete, Find and Replace operation.
- Document and subject annotations can be edited with a
text edit dialog.
- Online help is extended.
- Save PostScript commands replaced by single Export
dialog box, to be used for different output formats.
- In TDFD and TDEFD you can edit Minispecs.
- In TDFD and TDEFD you can say that a process is
contiblabla/instanblabla. And you can give it's activation
mechanism.
- During a drag operation in editor (with left mouse button)
you can always abort (with middle mouse button).
- The last visited directory in the Load/Save To File dialog
box becomes the current directory and vice versa.
- File format of TERD, TCRD, TDFD, TDEFD and TSTD is changed
so that it complies to the new TCM2 file format.
Version 1.3.6. (30 mar 1997).
--------------------------------------------
- Some memory leaks removed.
- Bug removed from "undo duplicate".
- Extra assertions put into diagram editor code.
- Regeneration of source code documentation with doc++.
- Some bug fixes concerning DFD indexes.
Version 1.3.5. (22 mar 1997).
--------------------------------------------
- Small changes in main window layout for fitting all buttons also in
smaller screen sizes.
- TCM will not be started anymore when TCM_HOME is not set.
- Some bugs removed concerning creating and deleting duplicates.
- Some bugs removed concerning pasting parts of diagrams.
Version 1.3.4. (15 mar 1997).
--------------------------------------------
- Removed a bug in the tree editors which caused a crash when a tree
is saved.
- In the data flow editors the index number is now called 'counter' and
the level field is called 'diagram'.
- TDFD: implemented a re-index command, issued via a button near the DFD
counter which gives each process defined on the current diagram
a new unique index from one to the number of these processes.
The re-index command has an undo.
- In the data flow editors the index number text field is not user
setable but completely automatic. It always displays the _next_ unused
free index number for the current level. When the user creates a new
process, the new process receives this index number. When processes are
created or deleted the index field is updated, if necessary. Also, when
processes are copied and pasted or when a diagram is appended the new
processes always receive a unique index number. Duplicates have the same
index number as they represent the same process. If the user wishes, he
can can still edit the index label by hand.
- Implemented scalable X fonts. When a document is zoomed in or out
the font is scaled proportionally. In the config file there is
an option to turn off scalable X fonts.
- Moving a diagram with the arrow buttons to the left or top border of
the drawing area is improved. When the diagram arrives at the border
it will not be corrupted as it was before.
- The undo of drag shapes and the center operation was faulty when applied
to segmented lines: the handles were not repositioned at their
original places. This is fixed by now.
- When a document file contains a document name that differs from
the file name, a pop-up dialog is posted when that document is
being loaded, asking whether you want to have the original document
name or the file name as new document name.
- Improved the page sizes: Us-letter was a non-existent or at least a
very unusual page size. There are now four possible standard page sizes:
A4 (default), Letter, Legal or Executive (they have the sizes as
in ghostview).
- When the page size is changed, a refresh is done.
- When trying to quit and the user tried to save the document to
an unwritable directory, the error dialog was covered by a
quit confirmation message dialog. This is fixed: the quit dialog
is not posted when the document could not be saved.
- Added an extra confirmation to the delete all commands.
- In TCM config files and TCM document files, comment text is accepted.
Comment is text that starts with a '#' and ends by a newline and
that is not part of a string.
- The default system config file $TCM_HOME/lib/tcm.conf is extended
with comments for the benefit of users who want to modify it.
- In the config file a version number is stored. A warning is given
when a version number is found that is older or newer than
expected by TCM.
- Added extra constraint to TPSD and the tree editors: you can't
connect a node by itself.
Version 1.3.3. (06 mar 1997).
--------------------------------------------
- Compiled under IRIX 5.3. Adapted make files and made some small
changes to the code.
Version 1.3.2. (05 mar 1997).
--------------------------------------------
- Changed the usage of identifiers in document files. When a document
is read the identifiers are not changed. I.e. the identifiers in
the file become the internal identifiers and vice versa.
- Some small bug fixes and recompiled for all platforms (Linux,
Solaris and SunOS). Adapted README.TCM, man pages, config files,
CHANGELOG and web pages. New distributions are made for ftp.
Version 1.3.1. (28 feb 1997).
--------------------------------------------
- TSTD: added decision point node class and added some relevant
constraints.
- Made hexagon shape class. This shape type is used to draw
decision points.
- Each editor now shows the current TCM version in the title bar.
- Removed bug in TCRD which sometimes caused a too large class box
and an implementation error message after you changed the cursor
position during editing.
- TSTD: each node has to be mutually unique named.
- TPSD: the node 'Process' is now internally called 'PSProcess'
with is more consistent with SNProcess, DataProcess etc.
- TSTD: the file format is changed. In the prior version both the
coordinates of the separator lines were stored. Now the following
is stored: a single point (the 'anchor') the number of the line segment
the separator belongs to and the relative position of the separator
(left, right, up or down). This eliminates the bug that after
loading a STD the labels can not be properly moved.
The coordinates of the separator line of an initial state are also
not stored but recalculated after loading in. The old format is
still accepted of course.
- Added a system config file in $TCM_HOME/lib/tcm.conf containing
configuration options for some editor options, like the name
of the printer, the command to print a file, the page size etc.
This file is read in by each editor upon startup. The menu items
of the editor are initialized with the values from the config file.
The syntax of the file is reminiscent of the syntax of the
TCM document files, except that the fields in a certain section
may be in arbitrary order (or may be omitted). The system config
file can be copied to and overridden by a user config file to be
installed in $HOME/.tcmrc. When the config file cannot be read
or the contents misses certain options, an error message is printed
and built-in defaults are used (like in the prior versions of TCM).
- The minimal row width and column height operations in the table
editors automatically apply auto-resizing when the auto-resize toggle
is on and these sizes are made smaller.
- Accelerators Ctrl-I and Ctrl-O for fast zooming in and out.
- Find operation (Ctrl-F) implemented for diagram editors. All shapes
having a certain substring in their names are selected. Find is case
insensitive. The status line tells how many shapes are found.
- Find operation (Ctrl-F) implemented for table editors. All cells
having a certain string as substring are selected. Find is case
insensitive. The status line tells how many cells are found.
- Duplicate shapes receive a visual mark (asterisk) showing that
we have to do with duplicates. The asterisk is displayed near the
top left corner of the node shape.
- When you delete duplicate shapes then a question dialog is raised
asking whether you want to delete only the selected shapes or the
entire subject (and consequently all the duplicate shapes).
- Create duplicate is now simply called Duplicate. The delete
duplicate command is removed from the edit men, because its function
is now superseded by the Delete command.
- The cut command does not delete all duplicates of the selected
shapes anymore, only the shapes that are really selected.
Version 1.3.0. (17 feb 1997).
--------------------------------------------
- Added: an undo/redo for the text edit operation, both in-line and
outline. I.e. stop editing is now an undo-able command.
- Added: the undo menu item shows which command can be undone or
redone.
- Fixed: a bug which caused that the in-line edit cursor sometimes
remained visible on the drawing area.
- Fixed: outline editing the label of a deleted shape caused a crash.
- Undo for move/center document operations (i.e. the operations with
the arrow buttons). The center operation now works correctly when the
document is zoomed in or out.
- TSTD: improved some of the edit-ability and move-ability of the
labels and separator lines of diagonal and curved transition arrows.
The movement of the separator line has an undo.
Version 1.2.9. (11 feb 1997).
--------------------------------------------
- Added continuous event flows and event stores to TDEFD.
- Changed indexing of data and control processes: newly created processes
receive the lowest free index number at the current level.
- Change shape selection mechanism: if a _selected_ shape is clicked with
button1 and the selection contains more than one shape, this shape becomes
the first shape of the selection. Empty the selection by clicking
button2 in the background.
Version 1.2.8. (10 Feb 1997).
--------------------------------------------
- Added double headed arrows to TGD.
- Compiled under Linux 2.0.18 ELF with gcc 2.7.2. Some code
changes because of gcc compiler errors and warnings.
- Fixed: Menu accelerators now work under Linux.
- Fixed: bug in table editors, which caused that the column alignment
was not applied properly when a table was loaded.
- TFDT (tool for function decomposition trees) becomes
TFRT (tool for function refinement trees) and TDCFD (tool for data and
control flow diagrams) becomes TDEFD (tool for data and event flow
diagrams).
- Fixed: in TFET you were asked whether you want to save an _unmodified_
table when you wanted to quit the editor.
- Added: Tables of one document type can be read by table editors of another
document type. A warning is given but the tables are converted automatically.
Ditto for the two tree editors and in TDEFD you can read diagrams made by
TDFD.
- Data transformation is renamed to data process in TDFD and TDEFD.
- Rewrote a lot of the sources so that no global variables are needed anymore
and that virtually all code is now part of some C++ class.
- Rewrote the menu building part of the source to make menu configuration
a lot more flexible.
- Wrote a special Config class for TCM configuration.
- Wrote new classes for TCM file I/O.
- Reorganized part of the libraries so that a library only contains code
that really belongs in that library.
Version 1.2.7. (06 Nov 1996).
--------------------------------------------
- Fixed: TCM complained when the parent of the project directory
was unreadable and the directory was set wrongly.
- Fixed: a small bug in the fork drawing in the tree editors.
Version 1.2.6. (21 Oct 1996).
--------------------------------------------
- Fixed: when the main window is destroyed, TCM will be killed.
(In earlier versions TCM continued running but without window,
so the process had to be killed explicitly).
- Added: when lpq is not found on Solaris, the program lpstat
is used to show the printer queue.
- Added: Redirection of an edge to another node. When the
handle of an end point of an edge is dragged into a different
node, the edge will be redirected to that node.
- Added: diamond and dashed diamond shape types to TGD.
- The texts in some popup dialogs are updated.
Version 1.2.5. (3 Oct 1996).
--------------------------------------------
- File selectors that let you save to a file will always show a
default file in the selection field.
- Table editors: auto resize can now make a cell wider and less
high or less wide and higher at the same time.
- Fixed: after append diagram the paste box remained visible.
- Table editors: editor settings like DefaultRowAlignment,
DefaultColumnAlignment, MinimalRowHeight, MinimalColumnWidth,
DefaultLineStyle, DefaultNumberOfRows and DefaultNumberOfColumns
are NOT written to file anymore. Instead they are purely settings
of the editor, not attributes of a table document. Files of an
older format are still being read of course.
- Table editors: modified is only set to true when the table itself
is changed, not when an editor option like DefaultRowAlignment
is changed.
- Man pages adapted to the options of v1.2.5.
- Usage texts (-help option) are made up to date.
Version 1.2.4. (27 Sep 1996).
--------------------------------------------
- TERD/TCRD: one-one relationship represented by a double arrow.
(the subject is a Function with card. constraint 1).
- Rounded box shape type is implemented (X, PostScript).
This is added as a new shape type in TGD.
- TRPG: nodes can be labeled. Labeled nodes are represented by
a rounded box shape type.
- Table editors: 'stippled' line style is now renamed to 'dotted'.
- Fixed in table editor: default alignments of loaded
table were set wrongly, this is fixed.
- Fixed in table editor: insertion of > 1 rows/columns in middle
of table resulted into wrongly positioned row/column labels.
- Fixed: remove from printer queue didn't work.
- Fixed: multi-segmented lines gave pixel droppings.
Version 1.2.3. (Sep 5 1996).
--------------------------------------------
- lpq, lprm and ghostview commands can be set with a pop-up dialog
via the printer options sub-menu (cf. print command).
- Some bug fixes, amongst others: save text before saving to file.
- Cardinality constraints may also be specified in the form of 0,n.
Version 1.2.2. (Aug 25 1996)
--------------------------------------------
New functions:
- (Project) directory can be chosen in startup program (via File->Project
Directory). All editors will start having this proj.dir. as current directory.
Editors have a new command line argument -projdir <dir>.
- -drawing 'width'x'height'(initial drawing area size) can be set in startup
program (via View->Set drawing Area). All editors will start having this
drawing area size.
- -maxdrawing 'width'x'height'(maximal drawing area size) can be set in startup
program. Editors can't have a drawing area which is larger than this maximum
(when the workstation has too little memory it will crash on a too
large drawing area). -maxdrawing is a new command line option.
- Set default font option. Every new cell text or text shape
will get that X font. When the document is printed or saved as
PostScript, a PostScript font is chosen that resembles as much as
possible to the the X font.
- Update font operation. Every selected cell or shape will get the
chosen font. Of each cell or shape the font is stored in the TCM file
in a distinct field. (NB. all texts of a complex shape have the same font).
- Default font and update font are issued in a (new) Text menu in the
main menu bar.
- The text fonts families currently include:
Helvetica, Courier, Times and NewcenturySchoolbook.
Default: Helvetica.
- The font styles currently include:
Roman, Bold, Italic (Oblique) and BoldItalic (BoldOblique)
Default: Roman
- The point sizes currently include:
8, 10, 12, 14, 18, 24.
Default: 10pt.
- Text in symbol font (for mathematical (mostly Greek) characters).
- TCM can be started up with a private color map by a command line
option: -priv_cmap.
- Outline editing: window has a clear button which removes all characters.
- Inline editing: cursor positioning by mouse clicking: on entering the
edit mode the cursor will appear after the last character. After that,
it can be moved to an arbitrary cursor position in the text string
by mouse clicking the text.
- Alignment left/center/right of a multi-line text label in the diagram editors.
(alignments are stored in the TCM files for each shape). There is a default
alignment (center), which can be changed. There is also an update alignment
command (works on current selection). Default alignment and update alignment
commands can be found in the Text menu.
- Annotation text of a diagram can be filled in in a pop-up edit window
(issued via the Diagram menu). The annotation is stored in the TCM files.
Small changes/Implementation/Bug fixes:
- Table editors: Column/Row alignment and Text margin/width menu items are
moved from the Layout menu to the Text menu. The Layout menu is now called
Table.
- Table editors: Default number of rows/columns command is issued via
a slider dialog instead of a text field.
- Table editors: Line type is now called Line Style.
- Generated PostScript: default line width is a bit smaller.
PostScript lines are now 3/4 of the default width.
NB. in X a line is always 1 pixel wide.
- Outline editing: the edit window can now be resized to all directions and
the edit area resizes with.
- Searching for Unix programs first starts in $TCM_HOME/bin. Alternative
locations can now be reached via symbolic links.
- There was a bug in Move diagram in TCRD that caused a problem of
unconnected lines when boxes are moved that had undergone a type change,
like triple box->double box. This is fixed by now.
- _During_ editing you could not switch between in-line and outline
editing. This is fixed by now.
- Rewrote startup program (tcm.c) into a new class StartupWindow
(specialization of MainWindow), using menu, dialogmanager etc.
- Adapted DialogManager so that it does not depend anymore
on MainWindow.
- All integer constants in header files are either made enums in
a class or are made class constants and the value is specified
in the source file (not in header file).
- All automatic resizing and layout positioning in the diagram and
table editors now (seem to) work correctly with multiple text fonts.
- Removed bug that made tfdt crash when a diagram was loaded.
- Removed bug in the tree editors: when a diagram was loaded in tree mode
it was displayed in edit mode (the toggle was reversed).
- File format of table editors is a bit different: first the rows are stored
(including the cell texts) and then the columns. The line types and
text alignments are not stored anymore as integers but as normal words
like dashed, fat, invisible etc. The old format is still being read of
course.
- New class XFont which encapsulates TCM fonts. It converts a TCM font to
an equivalent X font description (XLFD) or a PostScript font description.
Version 1.21 (Jul 22 1996).
----------------------------------------
- Added 'psf' perl script + man page to exec distribution (psf offers
several PostScript filter options).
- Rewrote part of source code to lessen the number of (C) functions
that are not C++ class members.
- Rewrote part of source code to lessen the number of global variables
(only 4 are left, which are only used in WindowSA).
- Different editor fonts (X and PostScript): Helvetica, Times-Roman and Courier.
All can be used in 14, 12, 10 and 8 points. Font change via 'Font' submenu.
- Center to page operation added. Issued via a button labeled 'C' amidst
the arrow buttons.
- Option (in page menu) to show document info as header or footer of each page.
These headers or footers will be printed like they are displayed (wysiwyg).
- Option (in page menu) to show page numbers. Page numbers will be printed when
that option is on (Page numbers displayed either at the top of the page
(footer is on) or at the bottom (header or none)).
- All changeable printer options now in Printer Options sub-menu in Print menu.
- Extra printer options added:
- set print command (e.g. /usr/local/bin/lpr).
- print extra banner page (yes/no).
- print duplex pages (yes/no).
- print tumbled pages (yes/no).
The duplex and tumble options are implemented by filtering
the PostScript output through psf. If psf can't be found a warning
is issued.
- Some small changes to generated PostScript and EPSF to make them apply better
to the Adobe structuring rules.
- Information that is given in 'document info' is extended by tool and
file info.
- Change to file format (oldies are still being read) in which the
following items are renamed (Created -> CreatedOn, Written -> WrittenOn,
Generator->GeneratedFrom) and in the Storage clause a new field
WrittenBy is added (login name that saved the document).
- The generator field contains the name of the tool that saved the file.
That name is extended by the TCM version number, e.g. TGD-version-1.21.
