Hi,

I have been trying to use stereotyping to specify the shape for different types of activities, but this does not seem possible.

In the example below, both A and B are octagons, as expected.

@startuml
 skinparam activityShape octagon
 (*)-->A
 A-->B
@enduml
 
However, here A remains an octagon, despite the stereotype:
 
@startuml
 skinparam activityShape octagon
 skinparam activityShape<< stereo >> roundBox
 (*)-->A<< stereo >>
 A-->B
@enduml

 

But specifying the background color works  (only A is red, and both A and B are still octagons):

@startuml
 skinparam activityShape octagon
 skinparam activityShape<< stereo >> roundBox
 skinparam activityBackgroundColor<< stereo >> Red
 (*)-->A<< stereo >>
 A-->B
@enduml
 
Switching the shape of the stereotype doesn't work either (both A and B are roundBoxes, and A is still red:)
 
@startuml
 skinparam activityShape<< stereo >>  octagon
 skinparam activityShape roundBox
 skinparam activityBackgroundColor<< stereo >> Red
 (*)-->A<< stereo >>
 A-->B
@enduml
 
Thanks!
