Can't find the Class Diagram in Visual Studio 2017

Question

I've installed Visual Studio 2017 Enterprise on my computer with the Installer and there are some optional options like the "Class-Diagram". I've checked it but it won't show up in my project templates.

Programm language: C#

Version VS 2017: 15.0.26228.9

Version VS Installer: 1.5.30308.1

VS Installer - Class Diagram is checked and already installed (Screenshot)

On the left hand side, we can't find the category "Model Project" like in VS 2015

Regards

Solution 1

It seems the 'modelling project' feature is removed from Visual Studio 2017. Reasons are given here https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/devops/2016/10/14/uml-designers-have-been-removed-layer-designer-now-supports-live-architectural-analysis/

Solution 2

Have you added the Visual Studio extension development?

Along with Class Designer, you have to include Visual Studio extension development also from the VS2017 installer.

Solution 3

If you have installed all the required things mentioned above and if you are still not seeing the Class Diagram from Solution Explorer , switch to Class View and then you will see the "View Class Diagram" option
