2) The packages display alias

@startuml

Folder Root as "Root" {

Folder VeryLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOgName as "Reports3"

package "Pack1" as LOOOOOOOOOOOgPackageName 

package LOOOOOOOOOOOgPackageName2  as "Pack2"

Node "Node" as LOOOOOOOOOOOgNodeName

Hello Serge, PlantUML team,

A possible workaround for "The packages display alias" is to used nestable package, as:

package "Pack3" as LOOOOOOOOOOOgPackageName3 {
}

[See on PlantUML server]

But, with other package (Pack1, for example), the issue occurs :

package "Pack1" as LOOOOOOOOOOOgPackageName1
package "Pack3" as LOOOOOOOOOOOgPackageName3 {
}

[See on PlantUML server]

If that can help for testing,
Regards,
Th.

My bigger issue is 1) (The folder size change with alias size)

Thanks for the workaround for 2) 

If all packages are nested, it is also OK:

Small question: How did you create Link [See on PlanUML server]???

Hello Serge,

Small question: How did you create Link [See on PlanUML server]???

First, without image:

1. Write the words: 'See on PlantUML server'
2. Select 'See on PlantUML server'
3. Click on 'Anchor/Link' icon
4. On the field URL, paste the link to your diagram on the PlantUML online server [e.g.: http://www.plantuml.com/plantuml/umla/i_98pSd9LoZFByf9iGO0]
5. Then, on the second tab, select the target, for example 'new window (_blank)'
6. Click on OK
7. That's all... Enjoy!

Example:

• → 'See on PlantUML server'

I can perhaps add this on alpha-doc?

Tomorrow or next week: tutorial 'with [PNG or SVG] image'...

Have a good weekend,
Regards,
Th.

Hello PlantUML team,

• Could you have a look about this defect?

1) The folder size change with alias size

@startuml
folder "f1" as f1
folder "f2" as LOOOOOOOOOOOng_f2
folder "f3" as LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOng_f3
@enduml

Why?

2) The packages display alias

See today's remarks on:

• https://forum.plantuml.net/6819/package-with-long-description-and-alias?show=13157#a13157

Thanks for your support,
Regards,
Th.
