Using PlantUML new activity syntax renders arrow text as activity

[ztorage]

@startuml
start
-> transition;
end
@enduml

renders as

instead of

Anything can be done? Special escaping? Workaround?

Thanks.

Hi @ztorage, I have tested this code in plantuml server online, and returns the same result as gravizo:

Hi again, Mind the semicolon trailing -> transition;. This is the correct example on PlantUML's server: http://www.plantuml.com/plantuml/uml/SoWkIImgAStDuG8pk7Jj54gA4lEACqioy_EikLBpKhWSW0HG0G00

The syntax is outlined here: http://plantuml.com/activity-diagram-beta#arrow

I don't know which version of plantUML is used in backend of gravizo now. PlantUML has new syntax for activity diagram. http://plantuml.com/activity-diagram-beta.

I have tried the following code

@startuml

start

repeat
  :read data;
  :generate diagrams;
repeat while (more data?)

stop

@enduml

![](<img src='https://g.gravizo.com/svg? @startuml;

start'

repeat; :read data; :generate diagrams; repeat while (more data?)

stop;

@enduml; '/>)

It could not be rendered by gravizo. It would be great if you could take look into it. By the way, the old syntax could not see if you browse in plantUML website without direct link to http://plantuml.com/activity-diagram-legacy
