Nested Packages

Question

In an older PlantUML version, a package with a name containing dots was displayed in a single box. In more recent versions, a separate box is drawn for each subpackage.

@startuml

package zone.informatik.java.template
{
  class Main
  {
    + {static} main(args: String[])
  }
}

@enduml

How can I enforce the old behaviour?

Answer 1

You can use set separator none :

@startuml
set separator none
package zone.informatik.java.template
{
  class Main
  {
    + {static} main(args: String[])
  }
}
@enduml

Hope this helps!

This is exactly what I was looking for.

Can this be made so it renders packages as nested as long as there is at least single class, interface, etc within package ? 

E.g. instead of rendering like this:

- one.informatik.java (package)
   - Dog.java

- one.informatik.java.template (package)
   - Main.java

Render it as such:

- one.informatik.java (package)
   - Dog.java
   - template (package)
      - Main.java
