Hi
Unfortunately no UML2 Tools developers were available to accommodate the
MDT/UML2 migration from 3.x to 4.x that introduced UML 2.4.1 support,
consequently UML2 Tools is not installable unless you also use a
pre-Juno version of MDT/UML2.
One day the tools may support UMLDI. There is a common GMF Notation
influence so diagram transformation may not be totally impopssibl;e, but
I doubt that it's easy.

So, simply put, if you have used Eclipse to create UML diagrams, then upgraded the software, you have to recreate everything more or less from scratch? Pretty disappointing

I did test that option briefly. To me it seemed unnecessarily cumbersome to use in that there is no way to just translate the model into a diagram - you have to add each and every item via drag and drop. Or have I missed something?
Also, I couldn't find a way to create a component diagram, which is in many ways what I'm most interested in. Isn't this supported?
Thanks,
