I have tried

<font align:left>X</font>
<font text-align:left>Y</font>

I also tried adding left to the title tag.


Solution

  • PlantUML has GraphViz as a rendering engine. It supports \l and \r for left and right aligned:

    @startuml
    title SomeTitle . SomeTitle . SomeTitle . SomeTitle .\l<font size=10>Want this left aligned</font>
