SquenceDiagram does not support actors with a dash #691

Closed nivekcode closed 5 years ago

nivekcode commented 6 years ago

I try to create a sequencediagram with an actor that includes a dash. It does not work because the dash is also included in the line definition. I just wanted to ask if it is already possible to add actors with dasehs or if we could add this feature.

I tried the following diagram on the mermaid online editor:

sequenceDiagram
foo-test->>+bar:test

Output

Parse error on line 2:
sequenceDiagramfoo-test->>+bar:test
------------------^
Expecting 'NL', 'AS', ',', 'SOLID_OPEN_ARROW', 'DOTTED_OPEN_ARROW', 'SOLID_ARROW', 'DOTTED_ARROW', 'SOLID_CROSS', 'DOTTED_CROSS', 'TXT', got '-'

maybe you can try:

sequenceDiagram foo#8211;test->>+bar:test

@zeerd Thanks for the response. I pasted your diagram definition in the mermaid online editor (https://mermaidjs.github.io/mermaid-live-editor) and still received the error.

It's strange. I tested it in typora which is using built-in mermaid, and this #8211; working on it.
