<ul>
<li><span class="label label-success">Added</span> An experimental mode to serialize representations in a different file is available with system property
<code>createRepresentationInSeparateResource=true</code>. That means all new representations will be saved, by default, in a separate file with *.srm extension.
</li>
- </ul>
- <ul>
+ <li><span class="label label-success">Added</span> An new
+ <em>session editor</em> is available on
+ <em>.aird</em> files. It provides an alternative, form-based GUI to visualize and manipulate sirius sessions which is not tied to the Modeling perspective or Model Explorer view. Sirius 5.0M6 includes a work-in-progress version of this new feature to encourage early community
+ <a href="https://wiki.eclipse.org/Sirius/SessionEditor">feedback</a>. That version should be considered in alpha state in terms of stability an UI polish. By default, the new editor will automatically open when a session is opened, but this behavior can be disabled via a new preference in the
+ <em>Sirius</em> category.
+ </li>
<li><span class="label label-info">Modified</span> The label alignment of Notes from the Palette has been modified from Juno to Luna or newer versions of Eclipse. The label alignment changed from TOP & CENTER to MIDDLE & LEFT. The initial alignment (TOP & CENTER) has been restored.</li>
+ <li><span class="label label-info">Modified</span> The export diagram as images actions are now adapting the output resolution based on the diagram size, this leads to better resolution for small to medium diagrams (and also bigger file) and to an operation which is no longer failing with out of memory errors in case of very big diagrams.</li>
+ <li><span class="label label-info">Modified</span>The “straighten to” actions previously had a limitation concerning overlap detection. This is no longer the case. The previous known limitation was removed from the documentation (
+ <i>In case of multi-selection, the overlap check is done in the current context of existing border nodes and not in the context of location of border nodes after each straighten edges.</i>).
+ </li>
+ <li><span class="label label-info">Modified</span>Decorators on diagram elements are drawn over all figures. If there is an overlap between a decorator of a figure A and another figure B that is over figure A, when user clicks on the decorator, the figure B is now selected (before it was the parent figure A).</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="SpecifierVisibleChanges">Specifier-Visible Changes</h3>
<ul>
+ <li><span class="label label-success">Added</span> It is now possible to create one or multiple pre-configured widget(s) in a group if its domain class and if the meta-models of the properties view containing it have been specified.</li>
+ <li><span class="label label-success">Added</span> Property Views definitions now support extending and overriding Properties View Descriptions without modifying the original. See
+ <a href="specifier/properties/Properties_View_Description.html#extensibility_features">the documentation</a> for details.
+ </li>
<li><span class="label label-info">Modified</span> The transient layer has been introduced in Sirius 5.0. (Refer to
<a href="specifier/diagrams/Diagrams.html#Transientlayer">Sirius Specifier</a> and
<a href="user/diagrams/Diagrams.html#transientLayer">Sirius User</a> documentation in Diagram chapter). Transient layer is an additional layer containing only decorations or tools. If you have such layer in your VSM, users may encounter some unexpected behaviors. If the layer is not
<em>active by default</em> then it will not be applied when opening your diagram even if it was activated before. If the layer is
<em>active by default</em> then it will be automatically applied when opening your diagram. We consider this behavior as a known limitation and an enhancement may be done in a further release. In the meantime, there is a workaround which consists to add a fake mapping (that is any mapping with its fields empty) so that the layer will not be considered as transient.
</li>
+ <li><span class="label label-info">Modified</span> The tab used to configure the metamodels used by the Properties view description is now using the same interface as the metamodels tab used to configure the representations.</li>
+ <li><span class="label label-info">Modified</span> The
+ <code>package::Class</code> syntax for domain classes and type names in the VSM is now fully supported and the new default. It means this syntax is interpreted by Sirius and completion is provided for it when the first
+ <code>:</code> character is entered. The legacy syntax
+ <code>package.Class</code> is still supported for compatibility.

- <p>This plugin provides a session editor showing loaded models, representations and viewpoint activation status of the session. It has functionalities allowing to change the viewpoint activation status, to create/remove representations or to load unload external models. The graphical block showing loaded models is integrated with CNF. You can provide content extension to its viewer by using an id matching the pattern
- <code>org.eclipse.sirius.ui.editor.graphicalcomponents.semanticModelsViewer.contentExtension.*</code>. You also can provide action extension by using an id matching the pattern
- <code>org.eclipse.sirius.ui.editor.graphicalcomponents.semanticModelsViewer.actionExtension.*</code>. The extension will be selectable/unselectable by using a
- <code>Customize View</code> button on the models block header.

Sirius 5.0M6 includes a work-in-progress version of this new feature to encourage early community "feedback":https://wiki.eclipse.org/Sirius/SessionEditor.

(Refer to "Sirius Specifier":specifier/diagrams/Diagrams.html#Transientlayer and "Sirius User":user/diagrams/Diagrams.html#transientLayer documentation in Diagram chapter). Transient layer is an additional layer containing only decorations or tools. If you have such layer in your VSM, users may encounter some unexpected behaviors. If the layer is not _active by default_ then it will not be applied when opening your diagram even if it was activated before. If the layer is _active by default_ then it will be automatically applied when opening your diagram. We consider this behavior as a known limitation and an enhancement may be done in a further release. In the meantime, there is a workaround which consists to add a fake mapping (that is any mapping with its fields empty) so that the layer will not be considered as transient.

It has functionalities allowing to change the viewpoint activation status, to create/remove representations or to load unload external models. The graphical block showing loaded models is integrated with CNF.

+This plugin is new in Sirius 5.0. It provides a session editor showing loaded models, representations and viewpoint activation status of the session. It has functionalities allowing to change the viewpoint activation status, to create/remove representations or to load unload external models. The graphical block showing loaded models is integrated with CNF. You can provide content extension to its viewer by using an id matching the pattern @org.eclipse.sirius.ui.editor.graphicalcomponents.semanticModelsViewer.contentExtension.*@. You also can provide action extension by using an id matching the pattern @org.eclipse.sirius.ui.editor.graphicalcomponents.semanticModelsViewer.actionExtension.*@. The extension will be selectable/unselectable by using a @Customize View@ button on the models block header.
