V4.1.e.Rhp831.PreRelease (27-OCT-2022)

This release can be found on github. Focus for this release was to make it easy to create views and viewpoints. Helpers provided by the profile help to create a structure in the model representing a SysML view and viewpoint with queries and custom views able to filter the browser and diagram. Helper adds new right-click menus to add or remove elements from existing views.

V4.1.d.Rhp831.PreRelease (19-OCT-2022)

This release can be found on github. It contains mainly polishing from further use, for example to align the names of the diagrams created through the java api with those that are set as properties for new term diagram types and some improvements/robustness in auto-port creation logic (which will generate proxy ports and interface blocks for you). Also, although the profile is developed with 8.3.1, it's usable with 9.0.1, and in iFix003 which is a service release the file extension for the sysml profile changed to .sbsx rather than .sbs, hence I've fixed the executable mbse to work with both.
