Issue 17018: Rendering of UML diagrams in each of the figures is of poor graphical quality (dds-xtypes-ftf) Source: Mobilize Software (Mr. Sam Mancarella, sam(at)mobilizesoftware.com.au) Nature: Uncategorized Issue Severity: Summary: The gradient shading rendered in each of the elements on a low-color image results in elements rendered as follows: The diagrams should be rendered either by using a higher-color format (such as png), or without the gradient rendering enabled. NB: To turn off the gradient shading in Enterprise Architect, go to the "Tools->Options" dialog. Under the "Diagram->Appearance" group: 1) Deselect the "Show Gradient Fill for Paper Color" option 2) Set the "Gradient Fill Direction for an Element" to "<none>" Resolution: Make these changes in the EAP file so that as diagrams are updated, this problem will be fixed. In the mean time, defer this issue. Do not preemptively regenerate every diagram at this time.
