Can support middle-to-middle anchor arrow layout when using other anchor point?

[marcocheungkami]

Currently, I find only using a middle-to-middle anchor position can form the shortest length of the arrow line.
e.g. middle-to-middle

However, I do not want the arrow to get into my node. If I am using another anchor point even when noCurves prop., I am getting some straight lines with angles.

Is it possible to use different anchor points with a middle-to-middle anchor layout?

Hi, thanks for reporting 😊

If I got it correctly, you'd expect the first behaviour with arrows stopping on the corners of your element ?

I wish this was the case right (because "middle" is quite ugly) but as noted in the doc this is the behaviour we achieved the most simply, and making it look like you want will be quite hard 😞

In the README:

It's definitely possible, but I have no ETA yet. If you're interested, you can dive in the code of the lib (it's not too hard) and try to implement it yourself. I'll gladly receive a PR 😉

@pierpo thanks for your comment! I can make it myself. However, I am a junior level programmer that I might not be capable of writing perfect code. Would you mind to double-check for me?

Of course 😉
