When constructing class model, we often need to create multiple views for a class model element. For example, in a Order Processing System, the class OrderProcessingClerk will appear in both class diagram Purchase Goods and Return Goods. In such cases, creating a separate view of the same class model element helps making the design consistent.
    Reuse of model element can be achieved by dragging and dropping a model element from Model Explorer onto diagram. Starting from VP Suite version 3.4 Service Pack 2, you also can make use of the class name completion feature to help you sort out and select the class to reuse.

When working collaboratively as a team, we often need to know how our work may affects the others work, or vice versa. Visual Paradigm team collaboration support lets you know the changes that will occur in project when attempting to committing or updating works. In this release, you also can preview the changes. With this improvement, you can preview what you have modified before confirming a commit action. You can also preview what others have changed prior to updating their changes from server. More important, the preview can help resolving conflicts by foreseeing the result of overwrite and revert.

With word wrap support, shape names are fit into the size of shapes and with line-break added. This ensures the names to show completely without ruining the diagram due to the long names.
