State DIagrams Escaping "

+1 vote
asked Oct 13, 2014 in Wanted features by anonymous
Hello,

PlantUML is a great tool.

Nevertheless I am missing a feature to print in a state diagram a " sign. Is there a possibility to show the " sign in the diagram?

I want to use it for automatically generating a state machine diagram from C/C++ code and there are " signs used.

 

Best regards

Thomas

Hello,

Well, this is not possible (yet), but this should be easy to fix for us.

In the mean time, could you post here a very simple example of what you are expecting ?

Something like this ?

@startuml
state "This is my "state" with quotes"
