Arrow's thickness in sequence diagrams and skins

Question

Hi everyone PlantUML Community,

Is it possible to modify arrow's thickness by adding simple line in code like :

skinparam sequenceArrowThickness 15

And I have a second question, do you got a link which groups all skins shared by community.

Thanks in advance for your answer,

Best regards

Answer 1

Would be nice to see this implemented, seems like asuper easy thing,and most lines are too narrow to see well by default...

This has been implemented in V8043

Answer 2

Ok.
With last beta https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/13064071/plantuml.jar
You can have:

@startuml
skinparam sequenceArrowThickness 2.5
Alice -> Bob : hello
@enduml

The default thickness arrow is maybe indeed too narrow.
So we may launch a doodle to see if people would agree to change the default value from 1 (as today) to 1.5 in sequence diagram.

Anyway, thanks for the suggestion!
 

Answer 3

A pool has been open to slightly increase arrow's thickness for Sequence Diagram http://doodle.com/poll/2m2zakx55hpnqi5w

The parameter sequenceArrowThickness is working in beta https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/13064071/plantuml.jar and will be released in next official version.

How can such a thickness setting be applied to a single line only? Thanks!

Same question for me : how to change thickness for just one arrow ?

Hello all,

You can now use style for that, as:

@startuml
<style>
.mystyle {
  arrow {
    LineColor blue
    LineThickness 2
  }
}
</style>
a -> b : msg
a -> b <<mystyle>>: msg
@enduml

Enjoy,
Regards,
Th.
