How do I change the color of just one element in a Mermaid sequence diagram?

Question

I'm using Mermaid to create a sequence diagram in Markdown. I'd like to highlight some of the participants and to gray some of the arrows.

I only see how to change the theme color, not how to change the color of a specific diagram element. Is it possible?

Answer 1

Now, it isn't possible to style sequence diagrams. There is an open issue in their bugtracker. Click the link and vote for it :-)

You can style other types of diagrams, as answered by @lutz-dieckhofer.

Answer 2

Take a look at the Mermaid documentation, there is also a paragraph about the styling of individual nodes:

I hope this what you are looking for.
