|
|
The main enhancement to the UAF 1.3 specification is support for Mission Engineering (ME).
ME is the model-based process of analyzing, designing, and optimizing "systems of systems"
to achieve specific warfighting effects, rather than individual platforms.
UAF 1.3 provides the architectural framework (views, models, and taxonomy) to connect operational,
strategic, and resource perspectives to validate mission capabilities before development.
Besides the UAF 1.3 full metamodel, System Architect now supports modeling of the following
new UAF View Specifications:
|
|
|
|
|
• |
Mi-Pm-VS Parameters: Mission Vignette and Scenario |
|
|
|
• |
St-Pr-MP Strategic Processes: Mission Phases |
|
|
|
• |
Op-Pr-MT Operational Processes: Mission Threads |
|
|
|
• |
Rs-Pr-MET Resources Processes: Mission Engineering Threads |

Usability – Updated User Interface:
System Architect will look a lot more modern when you open it up. The control package for System Architect's toolbar has been upgraded. As a result, System Architect is now presented with toolbars with a blue background. If you wish to turn this look off, add the following to sa2001.ini or .mst:

|
Usability – Larger Menu Draw Icons:
Menu and toolbar icons have been scaled up to make larger button sizes neater. If you wish to turn this new scaling off, use the Icon* setting in the ini editor.
|
|
|
| |
|
Usability – Line Auto-Routing, Assign Connections:
The Diagram Auto Routing, Assign Connections functionality has been improved so that you can now turn on/off its setting for existing diagrams in the Tools, Preferences dialog. The setting chosen will override the setting last set on the diagram. This helps users who reopen a diagram wherein "Assign Connections" or "Retain Connections" was left on - and lines are adjusted according to the setting, against their wishes. |
|
|
|
|
Usability – Properties Pane:
You can now view and edit the properties of newly added symbols in the Properties pane, whereas previously you needed to save the diagram or use Advanced Edit. |
|
|
|
|
Usability – Name Position in Handlebars Retained:
An improvement now makes it such that the positioning of symbol names, repositioned using handlebars, is maintained after moving adjoining node symbols or using symbol alignment commands. |
|
|
|
|
Usability – Draw Live Picture of Diagram:
When using the Draw, Picture, Diagram function to add multiple live diagram layers onto a diagram - the Picture of Diagram dialog now offers only diagram types for which instances exist. |
|
|
|
|
Usability – Select All Symbols of a Type:
New functionality enables you to right-mouse click on any node or line symbol, and Select All Symbols of (that) Type on the diagram. This functionality is also available in the Edit menu. |
|
|
|
|
SA XT Diagramming – Icons on the Draw menus and Top menus have been scaled up to make larger button sizes neater. New css custom properties are available to allow you to control the size of these icons:
|
|
|
|
|
• |
The Top Toolbar is controlled by: toptoolsizespecify. Note that most Top Toolbar icons have been scaled up, but the default size remains as it was. |
|
|
|
• |
The Draw Toolbar is controlled by: drawtoolsize. |
|
|
|
• |
The Menus are controlled by: drawtoolsizeinmenu. |
|
|
| |
