Legend text includes unexpected properties (e.g. $lineStyle) about c4-plantuml HOT 3 CLOSED

Hi @cc-stjm,

most of the problems are related to the generated source and for that I think the best would be that you create an issue by the C4PlantUMLExporter

• $borderstyle should use lowercase values "solid",... (or I would even prefer the macros SolidLine(),...)
• and if $borderThickness="1" should not be displayed in the legend then it should not be set otherwise it is assumed it has a special meaning and therefore it is added to the legend
• (not relevant for the concrete problem, but maybe it can be changed too)
  • instead of "top to bottom direction" it should use LAYOUT_TOP_DOWN()
  • instead of "left to right direction" LAYOUT_LANDSCAPE(), in special LAYOUT_LANDSCAPE() offers a special implementation that the directions of the relations are correct

But independent of that I will check why $lineStyle is displayed in the legend, this should not be the case at all.

Hi @cc-stjm,

a fix (Solid is supported too) is merged into master. Maybe you want to test it
(I removed only the obsolet C4.puml and C4_Context.puml includes that the server does not use a cached image)

@startuml
top to bottom direction

!include https://raw.githubusercontent.com/plantuml-stdlib/C4-PlantUML/master/C4_Container.puml

AddElementTag("Element", $bgColor="#dddddd", $borderColor="#9a9a9a", $fontColor="#000000", $sprite="", $shadowing="", $borderStyle="Solid", $borderThickness="1")
AddBoundaryTag("Software System", $bgColor="#ffffff", $borderColor="#0b4884", $fontColor="#0b4884", $shadowing="", $borderStyle="Solid", $borderThickness="1")


System_Boundary("Foo_boundary", "Foo", $tags="Software System") {

Container(Foo.Bar, "Bar", $techn="", $descr="desc", $tags="Element", $link="")

}
