How to layout these classes to avoid inheritance information overlapped together

[Akarinnnnn]

I have a CompositeLayer class that inherits 4 interfaces which inherits another generic interface, and I'm drawing a class diagram about it. Here is the plantuml code:

And I get such outcome through plantuml-1.2024.3:

Noticed that generic inheritance information of keyboard and gamepad handler overlapped together, but I expect they don't overlap. Is there any way to achieve this?

Hi,

You can use \n to add some more spaces...

If that can help,

Hi @Akarinnnnn, and all,

Here is a minimal example, from:

a "a2b long long long lib" <|-- b
a "a2c long long long lib" <|-- c
a "a2d long long long lib" <|-- d
a "a2z long long long lib" <|-right- z

[FYI @arnaudroques for the overlapping issue (observed on v1.2024.4beta6)]

1/ Use \n

a "a2b long long long lib" <|-- b
a "\na2c long long long lib" <|-- c
a "\n\na2d long long long lib" <|-- d
a "a2z long long long lib" <|-right- z

2/ Or Change to arrow labels as:

a <|-- b       : "a2b long long long lib"
a <|-- c       : "a2c long long long lib"
a <|-- d       : "a2d long long long lib"
a <|-right- z  : "a2z long long long lib"

If that can help,
Regards,
Th.

@Akarinnnnn to clarify "2/ Or Change to arrow labels":
Your syntax as per "1/" should only be used for cardinalities (short labels that are placed near the head/tail of the arrow.

And I can add an ugly variant:

3/ Use arrow lengths to shuffle the arrows to different positions, eg <|------ is a longish arrow.
