Different Rectangle LineColor on Split (New Activity Diagram)

Question

Hello,

I'm attempting to reproduce the following diagram using PlantUML:

https://www.arubanetworks.com/techdocs/central/2.5.3/content/resources/images/paid_sub_workflow.png

Here's how actually is my diagram:

https://www.plantuml.com/plantuml/uml/bO_1IiD048Rl-nG3FHTZl5GDeMbi5Qmzb48Fuc59XcJePhRCJX0Ltzt4HAdenUDy-y-t_yo3Mj6sSIO9-k8mDUYmGLPuCm1tNkZLirgNEQhuanV8Yj8zFX1JqpPxAhM6E8uwjFKjbxaNHe5-NXDZxfqNcAnMiule1qkIs-roirbdzyiqXKbqdbtEuZ6mgwauC8O0FLdOub39uEvb-veKpRinLiG_zqrFVjg9vN2qWgnT93aRppBXw4Yx94mVQofBvATfsezNsVL0nufV-6R4t-710BQon7zv5lzTo7yj89Smz3obymwtZVi0

I would like that "A" and "B" rectangles could be colored with Green LineColor, but I'm unable to, as I'm unable to apply the "<<GREENLAKE>>" LineColor into it and there was a left to right line connecting the "A" and "C" rectangle shapes.

Hi,

If it's okay with, i think you would use the component for your diagram, like below

<style>
element {
  HorizontalAlignment center
  MinimumWidth 220
  RoundCorner 0
  LineColor #FF8300
  LineColor #FF8300
  BackgroundColor #FFFFFF
  LineThickness 2
}

.GREENLAKE{
  LineColor #01A982
}
arrow {
  LineColor #000000
}
</style>

rectangle A <<GREENLAKE>>
rectangle B <<GREENLAKE>>
rectangle C 
rectangle D 
rectangle B1 
rectangle B2 
rectangle B3 
rectangle B4 
rectangle A1 
rectangle A2 
rectangle A3 
rectangle A4 
rectangle C1 
rectangle C2 
rectangle C3 
rectangle C4 
rectangle D1 
rectangle D2 
rectangle D3 
rectangle D4 

A -> B <<GREENLAKE>>
B -> C
C -> D

A --> A1
A1 --> A2
A2 --> A3
A3 --> A4

B --> B1
B1 --> B2
B2 --> B3
B3 --> B4

C --> C1
C1 --> C2
C2 --> C3
C3 --> C4

D --> D1
D1 --> D2
D2 --> D3
D3 --> D4

If you really must use the beta activity diagram, he closest result would be this :
 

@startuml
<style>
element {
  HorizontalAlignment center
  MinimumWidth 220
  RoundCorner 0
  LineColor #FF8300
 
  LineThickness 2
  BackgroundColor White
}

.GREENLAKE {
  LineColor #01A982
}

arrow {
  LineColor Black
}
</style>

:A; <<GREENLAKE>>
-[#01A982]->
split
 -[#01A982]->
 :A1;
 :A2;
 :A3;
 detach
split again
 :B; <<GREENLAKE>>
 split
  :B1;
  :B2;
  :B3;
  detach
 split again
  :C;  <<GREENLAKE>>
  split
   :C1;
   :C2;
   :C3;
   detach
  split again
   :D;  <<GREENLAKE>>
   :D1;
   :D2;
   :D3;
   detach
  end split
 end split
end split

The component diagram seems great, it's possible to remove the "Greenlake" word from the diagram? I would like to apply the green style only on rectangles.
