Release Notes 5.2.0

Release Plan

Kitalpha, Diffmerge, Amalgam and EGF source code have been migrated to Github. (all those are inner components of Capella)

With this migration, we now benefit of an online version of the embedded documentation.

The user can change the z-order on edges with the following actions:

Launch action "Format/Order/Send to Back" (through the corresponding contextual menu)
Shortcut keys "Ctrl+Shift+F" (select fe1 and fe3 => z-order is changed)

Shortcut keys "Ctrl+F" (select fe2 => jump link is now drawn on fe1 instead of fe2, at the crossing between fe1 and fe2. Nothing is changed at the crossing between fe2 and fe3).

From Capella 5.2.0, Diagram images have all been replaced by SVG to significantly improve zooming capabilities.

The elements impacted by this change are:

Capabilities, Missions, Capability Realization
Function kinds (Fork etc...)
Components, Actors
Initial, final and terminate state
Configuration items
Delete Message
Additionally, some elements used to have drop shadow effects such as capabilities, missions or states in order to get better edge routing and exportation.

Below, some examples:

Projects need to be migrated to Capella 5.2 to use SVG images.
