Hello Team
When creating the sequence diagram from markup limitation is that it can be black and white plus few color themes.
I would like to create custom themes shapes but still use markup.
Is it possible?

Custom Shapes for UML Sequence Diagram created from Markup
Best answer by Micah
Hi Martin
Thanks for posting in the community! I recommend selecting color and line styles in the properties bar at the top before you begin to use the markup tool. Then everything you build after setting those default styles will be created with those styles applied.
Alternatively you can build your entire diagram then apply these style choices after you've finished. Finally if you wish to style certain shapes in your diagram individually you can right click on your diagram select Ungroup and then apply styles to specific shapes or lines. Note that if you do so you will no longer be able to continue editing the diagram using markup.
As an additional resource feel free to take a look at our UML Sequence Markup article from our help center and let me know if you have any additional questions!

adding a theme post-facto does not work. I think adding this feature would still be helpful. Styling in-markup would be ideal, similar to how D2 does it: https://d2lang.com/tour/sequence-diagrams
