Question

Please provide a way to set arrow thickness on component diagrams.

"additionally, in the last beta:

 

- arrowThickness does not work correctly for dashed lines (dashed become solid).
- arrowThickness does not affect arrow tips ( those does not resize)"

Additionally, the latest beta incorrectly displayes interfaces (see attached):

Answer 1

Not possible with the last version.

However, with the last beta :

https://www.dropbox.com/s/koo42q3d9gxw288/plantuml.jar?dl=0

You can have:

@startuml
skinparam arrowThickness 4
component c1
component c2
c1 --> c2
@enduml

Is this what you are expecting ?

Comments

Thankyou! Is it also possible to set thickness per link?
for example, as
a -[thicknessA]-> b
c -[thicknessC]-> b

additionally, in the last beta:

arrowThikness does not work with class diagrams. Any alternative to this for class diagram?

---

With last beta:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/koo42q3d9gxw288/plantuml.jar?dl=0
The following example is now working:
@startuml
skinparam arrowThickness 4
class c1
class c2
class c3
c1 -[dotted]-> c2
c1 -[dashed,thickness=2]-> c3
@enduml

To boshka, can you provide a snippet showing the arrow tips ?
To n.naoghare, be careful: the name is arrowThickness (and not arrowThikness) and this is working only with last beta.

Thanks team,
Yes I understand it is "arrowThickness" it was a typo. However, till when we can expect to use this fix on the plantuml online server? It is not working on plantuml server.

It's online now!
Enjoy !

Thanks a lot.

However there is one issue I am facing -
http://www.plantuml.com/plantuml/uml/SoWkIImgAStDuIhEpimhI2nAp5L8B2hABm_9o4pEpaijBbOmvahEIGJIoOOmXX6C0PGoLD2DJialAKbDYTMr0qk1HHABCr9JT4fWXjWQWsMXwX72fc1X4ow7rBmKe2C0

skinparam does overwrite the arrow thickness given for a specific node which I guess should be otherwise.

And if I comment the skinparam then it works

Here is the snippet with the bad arrow tips:

component a
component b

a-[thickness=8]>b
b-[dashed,thickness=8]>a

ADDITIONALLY, noticed that the last beta incorrectly displayes interfaces (see, attached to the ticket)

---

This should be ok now:
http://www.plantuml.com/plantuml/uml/IyxFBSZFIyqhKKZaIeQpaxYu4dMZIp8oaxFpKekBRIrYxPAuadIZKnABCr9JT50a4W40

We are interested by the issue about interface display. But we cannot find any ticket about this. Could you create one please ? Thanks!

Hi!

i see that arrow tips are still bad: http://www.plantuml.com/plantuml/uml/SoWkIImgAStDuKhEpot8pqlDAr58H68d8R5JkBWITQDBCZAJi_DIYujjZGnYxPAi58hpSrCLIb8hIhYITADJ4eipKbDqK1MbG1NbbsIa5a6KEgJcfG1j1G00

re: interface display: i meant I attached the image to this ticket (see above)

---

About interface, can you post the text of your diagram above ? Thanks

Sorry, we are trying to combine class diagram and component diagram, so it's a side effect of this evolution.
Could you change "interface" to "circle", like here
http://www.plantuml.com/plantuml/uml/fLLDRvj043t3hrZ5P_UGKmvLbDYbpQ6AKkEsgge8hPS9NdczGsQ7L5QK_zu1uXRin4QokEmoxxrvyu6u2go9gxMBmyhwKfDUgnmUTENuCtg-rMjGD-2UWAtHSGVaaM6YpQeWh7m-HOUaVYujGmVZe02V7qCrIaWvK1l_GdeJnn5ZgHZL0fbHF5a2mnQzH3e9h0VUbA2GU8cza2R2F_EbDIiF8QZpNj1w1dhG1jHp74MBDmtA-uwfYHDG7BtqP1uhg4wKMDGSJPlJL8oCYj2T9WAUBPzeH1kMqFCWpmwhV0_Q37zNj1vbWpGDfjXYP4aiEr0JmXNu_rCDYcJlWAml15ClZlQ5uCxk21b5v4pfeChNYnfzjSMI9ww2SLEef99S7dDXf41FG0q-DCVCuBf4ByrIe-IYVhgaRhAMgcRm-A73bsi5OPyit4WPI-OeDTESfSdiHpBBPictxqawJslsoxlvGzbN2U8_m647KsVh4lSSjDpQmgVh-NMM_hgTjibV3RHTQzaDqJJ7uLtxbtZhkXKOvdgtRttkqCRjrhvL6J2uWzHtkjPkyh4Hg_7lKK40_dvyEQIk0mDJ7qLh8Uj-Fpvay4g-8Van_0K0

This would give you back the good result.

i tried circle and it breaks in my case:

while this does not:

Could you fix this please?

---

Well, you cannot define two elements with the same name, so you should use

http://www.plantuml.com/plantuml/uml/SoWkIImgAStDuIfAJIv9p4lFILLGSbHII2nMS5Ievk9KK4n9JSlCIrLmSNMBDmIHddwU8Px-VeP0kUJCecIGUaEmUh0ABZGjHaXQZ92q6C6r677LSZcavgK0tG00

Your last example does not crash but it does not really work : the second interface is simply overriding the first one.

---

if it does not crash for "interface" why should it for "circle"? In my case it is ok that it overrides. I just need the "circle" to work the same way as "interface" example and not crash. Could you do that?

---

Sure!
This is fixed in last beta https://www.dropbox.com/s/koo42q3d9gxw288/plantuml.jar?dl=0
Tell us if you find other issues, thanks!

---

many thanks! circle works for me now.

Arrow tips are still bad: http://www.plantuml.com/plantuml/uml/SoWkIImgAStDuKhEpot8pqlDAr58H68d8R5JkBWITQDBCZAJi_DIYujjZGnYxPAi58hpSrCLIb8hIhYITADJ4eipKbDqK1MbG1NbbsIa5a6KEgJcfG1j1G00
