Request: Collections type in Deployment diagrams

asked Jan 14, 2020 in Wanted features by coxley

In system designs, it's common to use a set of overlapping boxes to represent a collection of things. PlantUML supports this... but only for sequence diagrams. :(

Could we get this shape available to others -- especially deployment?

Oh... interesting! Why does the arrow variation change the diagram type for this?

--*: Works
