(ROSE) Transition to Rose2001A

[Vladimir Riecicky]

Hi,

I am currently using Rose release version 2001.03.00 and considering transition to Rose2001A. Before I start doing any installations and Rose updates I would like to disscus this issue with anyone having practical experience with it. The main reason for this transition from my point of view is terrible (undesired) layout automation of Activity diagrams in the currently used Rose release version (esspecially Objects in combination with Swimlanes).

Thease are my questions:
- Isn't there any patch or workarround to fix the above mentioned situation with layout for Rose 2001.03 ?
- Esspecially I am interested, if concepts of Objects and Object flows within Activity diagrams has been changed ?(These are essential parts of my models)
- May I expect smothed loading of my current models after transition ?

Thanks for your comments in advance.

Regards,
Vladimir.
