This is the old
Activity Diagram (legacy) syntax, to see the new current version see:
Activity Diagram (new).
You can use
(*)
for the starting point and ending point of
the activity diagram.
In some occasion, you may want to use
(*top)
to force the starting point to be at the top of the diagram.
Use
-->
for arrows.

기본적으로 화살표는 마지막으로 사용한 액티비티에서 시작한다.
화살표에 라벨을 붙이려면 화살표 정의 바로 다음에
대괄호를 사용한다.

You can use
->
for horizontal arrows. It is possible to
force arrow's direction using the following syntax:
-down->
(default arrow)
-right->
or ->
-left->
-up->

You can use
if/then/else
keywords to define branches.

Unfortunately, you will have to sometimes repeat the same activity in the diagram text:

기본적으로 브랜치는 마지막에 정의한 액티비티와 연결된다.
하지만 이 룰을 오버라이드 하여 다른 연결 관계를
if
키워드로
정의할 수 있다.
브랜치 내 브랜치 정도 가능하다.

When you declare activities, you can span on several lines the
description text. You can also add
\n
in the description.
You can also give a short code to the activity with the
as
keyword.
This code can be used latter in the diagram description.

@startuml
(*) -left-> "this <size:20>action</size>
is <b>very</b> <color:red>long2</color>
and defined on several lines
that contains many <i>text</i>" as A1
-up-> "Another action\n on several lines"
A1 --> "Short action <img:sourceforge.jpg>"

You can add notes on a activity using the commands
note left
,
note right
,
note top
or
note bottom
,
just after the description of the activity you want to note.
If you want to put a note on the starting point, define the note
at the very beginning of the diagram description.
You can also have a note on several lines, using the
endnote
keywords.

@startuml
(*) --> "Some action"
note right: This action has to be defined
"Some action" --> (*)
note left
This note is on
several lines
end note

You can define a partition using the
partition
keyword, and
optionally declare a background color for your partition (Using a html
color code or name)
When you declare activities, they are automatically put in the
last used partition.
You can close the partition definition using a closing bracket
