Hello,

There is 9 columns in the drawing (from left to right). The errors are:

1) The arrow to the upper block in the 7th column start not at right position (big error)

2) The arrow to the upper block in the 9th column start not at right position (small error)

3) The arrow to the lower block in the 9th column start not at right position (small error)

Thanks for the feedback.

Please be patient : it will be long and difficult to solve, but we will find it.

The main reason is that this "json diagram" feature is the first official use of the smetana project.

Smetana is a source translation of C Dot/GraphViz to Java. This means that "json diagram" don't use any external GraphViz installation. It runs in pure Java.

So this bug means we have done a slight mistake somewhere in our C-to-Java translation. To find it will not be an easy task...

We've been lucky on this one : we find the error !

This is fixed in last beta http://beta.plantuml.net/plantuml.jar and on the online server.

Tell us if you find other issues!
