Placement of sprites wrong with "newpage" for vector formats

asked Mar 9, 2015 in Bug by stephan_sy (200 points)

Hi!

I encountered the following problem:

The placement of sprites is wrong when a sequence chart contains a "newpage" for vector output formats (svg, pdf, eps). On the first page the sprites are placed outside of the diagram.

Only for png output it seems to work.

Here an example:

@startuml
sprite $TimerExpired [17x21/4z] Os101qnWmCmCfXWP6HcOqG1M0OH-C0T91Cg4Yw0pq9MY6uR2XuWmu1D0rm9t9HeVoHae8cX-8yxx-0K0
sprite $TimerStarted [17x21/4z] Os101qnWmCmCfXWP6HcOqG0H0WpeV5GHY4NeV8G8mZ7eV8W80pu1B4P02IG-aWWw0rqfXc6aXmS0
sprite $TimerStopped [17x21/4z] Os101qnWmCmCfXWP6HcOqG1M0OH-C0T91Cg4Yw0pq9MY6uR2XuWmu1D0rq9jzn0N7YW00000

Thanks for the report!

This should be fixed in the following beta : https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/13064071/plantuml.jar

Tell us if it does not work for you.

Wow, thanks for this quick hotfix.

It works for my sprites. However, I found that the same problem exists for the "circle arrows" like "->>o", "o->" etc.
