YAML Highlight - Custom color for specific entries

[juicybox]

Usually you highlight important things in your YAML diagram, but sometimes it is also useful to show a highlighted alternative or optional values with a different color.

A possible solution might be a color option like: → '#color', '#red', '#E3E3E3'

@startyaml

#highlight "color"
#highlight "size" #red

fruit: Apple
size: Large
color: 
  - Red
  - Green

Hi J., and a ll,

Yes, you can do that with style, as:

Enjoy,

Here is an example:

@startyaml
<style>
    .h1 {
      BackGroundColor green
      FontColor white
      FontStyle italic
    }
    .h2 {
      BackGroundColor red
      FontColor white
      FontStyle bold
    }
</style>
#highlight "color" <<h1>>
#highlight "size" <<h2>>

fruit: Apple
size: Large
color: 
  - Red
  - Green
@endyaml

Enjoy,
Regards.
