 +The [[aspectmaps|introduction]] page provides a brief overview of how the AspectMaps visualization works, above the screenshot. For more complete written documentation, we refer to the ICPC paper {{:research:software:aspectmaps_icpc_camera.pdf|}}, which contains a full description of the visualization.
 +
 +In addition to the technical report, we also feature a number of screencasts about the tool.

 +As AspectMaps is in continuous development, some of the features shown in the above screencasts have undergone changes since they were recorded. The webpage for each screencast provides more details.

 +**List of known bugs**
 +
 +AspectMaps is a labor of love, but we unfortunately only have limited resources to work on the tool. Below is a list of known bugs that we do not have had the time to fix.
 +
 +  * Diamonds and triangles disappear on the right hand side of large visualizations. (Approx 2 screens out.) This is due to a bug in Pharo (more specifically in the Morphic implementation)
 +  * The import wizard misses some verifications / sanity checks on the input files. It is possible to provide the wrong files at the various stages of the import, which crashes the process.
 +  * With multiple AspectMaps windows open and visualizing the same model, changes in one window may not be reflected in the other window.
 +  * Scrollbars sometimes do not appear on a zoom in operation. This is a bug in the Glamour-Mondrian integration.
 +  * On a zoom out operation sometimes part of the diagram outside of its new dimensions are not erased. This is a bug in Mondrian.
 +  * On some occasions popups do not disappear when they should. This is a bug in Mondrian
