Placing of Transaction duration in Sequence Diagram

Question

I'm trying to layout a sequence of messages. I found out I can plot a nice vertical arrow that would show the duration of a specific process

https://plantuml.com/sequence-diagram#77c3940b98127fb8

Is there any way to influence the position of this line?

I would love to have it right of the participants.

Thanks!

Hello S.,

See similar request here:

See possible workaround here:

• https://forum.plantuml.net/15628/create-vertical-window-in-sequence-diagram?show=15630#a15630

With (not perfect... alignment...):

@startuml
!pragma teoz true
Alice -> Bob : start doing things during duration

{start} Max -[hidden]> Max

Bob -> Max : something
Max -> Bob : something else
Bob -> Alice : finish

{end} Max -[hidden]> Max : dummy
{start} <-> {end} : some time\n(Transaction duration),\n<color:green>on right of participants

If that can help,
