Feature : skinnable plantuml output

[jmk]

I just noticed that plantuml uses skin parameters to taylor its output. Skins may for example change generated (uml) components color, size or shape.

Would it be possible to add some capability to essential in order to parameterize skins plantuml outputs ?

I think this may be done through either an added parameter in viewer or new class/instance in the EA_Support hierarchy.

One use of such parameter could be, in the future, to allow for output of archimate like diagrams through the stereotype uml mechanism...

We build the script to drive PlantUML using XSLT like the HTML views.
You should be able to add or control the skin parameters in there.

Failing that, we use the uml_model.jsp file that you'll find in the root of the Essential Viewer webapp to invoke PlantUML using the script that we generated with the XSL. You should be able to set skin parameters in there.
