Hello,

How can I set the background of "MainState" so it is blue like the title ?

@startuml

state MainState #lightblue{
  state SubA #LightGreen
}

@enduml

Thanks !

It's not really possible this way. You should probably use stereotype instead:

@startuml
<style>
.foo {
  state,stateBody {
    BackGroundColor lightblue;
  }
}
</style>

state MainState <<foo>> {
  state SubA
}
@enduml

Hope this helps!

PS: Edited as the example was not correct
