yEd Description

A powerful graph editor yEd is a powerful graph editor that is written entirely in the Java programming language. It can be used to quickly generate drawings and apply automatic layouts to all kinds of diagrams and networks. yEd is available as a free download with unrestricted functionality!yEd makes use of the yFiles library which is a Java class library for viewing, editing, drawing, optimizing, and animating diagrams, networks, and other graph-like structures.yEd is built using 100% lightweight Swing components, i.e., it will run on any platform for which there is a suitable Runtime Environment available.yEd can be used to automatically layout complex graph structures. Several highly sophisticated layout algorithms have been implemented and ship with yEd. They can be used to either arrange the items fully automatically or support the user during a manual layout. Requirements: · Java 2 Standard Edition Runtime Environment What's New in This Release: · New comprehensive support for Swimlane diagrams has been added which comprises visual representation, user interaction, and support for automatic layout. · Swimlane diagrams can be easily modeled using the new swimlane nodes which provide representations for rows and columns to which other nodes can be added. Rows and columns can be interactively added, removed, resized, reordered, and also nested. · The nodes from a Swimlane diagram can be automatically arranged by a new dedicated Swimlane layout algorithm. · Context views have been added that display specific information related to selected nodes or edges, like, e.g. neighborhood or contents of folder nodes. · A new tool has been added that can check whether a newer version of yEd is available for download from the yWorks website. · New section in the Palette tool window that provides high-quality flowchart symbols.
