Built-in Transformations

Enterprise Architect provides a rich set of built-in, commonly performed transformations. These will prove useful to a variety of disciplines from Domain Modeling to Code Engineering. The facility to transform models is a powerful productivity tool and it is expected that modelers will want to create their own custom transformations. The built-in transformations provide useful examples and are a valuable reference for the modeler.
