Automatic Upgrade of Options Settings Files

The Diagrams Options files (DiagramsDefaultSettings.xml and DiagramsAttributePresentation.xml) are now automatically upgraded from previous versions, so that existing project settings can be preserved in the upgrade process while also gaining access to new settings and options introduced in the latest version.

The process of upgrade relies on a proper placement of the file containing the options values from an older version of diagrams. The proper place for the file is described in detail in the Diagrams User Guide, in the DiagramsàGetting StartedàApplication SettingsàDiagrams Options section. The upgrade is fully automatic and executes upon application start. A report of the upgrade process, containing descriptions and locations of the participant files and any problems that might have occurred is available in the Diagrams Message Log.
