Feature Request: Support for remote style sheets

I request that plantuml diagrams support both remote(url) and local style sheets.

An example of a remote style sheet might be https://www.advdelphisys.com/PlantUML/maley20250123.css.

Hello D.,

As mentioned on:

If you add `<style>...</style>` on your CSS, does this work?


Then how do you use plantuml?

  • Locally, on an Online server?
  • With which security profile?

FYI there are some security profiles:

[This is why in plantext it doesn't work anymore than the profile is more restricted...]


Just for the record, see similar request here:

If that can help,
Regards,
Th.

Please forgive me for my ignorance.

I am not hosting a plantuml server.

I am a consumer/client  using

https://editor.plantuml.com/SoWkIImgAStDuNBAJrBGjLDmpCbCJbMmKiX8pSd9vt98pKi1IW80

If this is not the correct server so that I can use external style sheets what is?

My hope is that a server is hosted somewhere where external style sheets are supported,

but at the same time my hope would be that it keeps up with all of plantuml's features.

Thank you for your help.

Is there a public plantuml server that allows external Style sheets.

If so what is it?
