ColdFrame: ArgoUML installation

Contents

Default settings

On Linux and (probably) Windows, you can set up ColdFrame-specific and ColdFrame-recommended defaults in the Edit/Settings menu. On Mac OS X, use Main/Preferences.

User tab

You can set your name and contact details in the User tab:

ArgoUML Edit/Settings/User tab

Profiles tab

In the Profiles tab, you need to tell ArgoUML where to find ColdFrame's profile (the top half of the screenshot). You'll probably want something more like /where/ever/cf-20121225/lib. Then, in the lower half, click on Refresh List to include ColdFrameProfile.xmi in the Available Profiles and then on the >> to include it in the Default Profiles.

ArgoUML Edit/Settings/Profiles tab

Notations tab

Adjust the Notations settings to suit.

ArgoUML Edit/Settings/Notations tab

Diagram Appearance tab

In the Diagram Appearance tab, you may like to show node names in a bold font.

ArgoUML Edit/Settings/Diagram Appearance tab

Project Properties

It's best if you remove all but ColdFrameProfile from the Active Profiles list.
