Description
I wondered why in diagrams created with struktolab the diagonal lines in the branch element do not meet at the bottom of the box but somewhere in the middle instead. I have not seen this except with struktolab. See example from Wikipedia below for comparison.
struktolab:

Wikipedia:

So my question is: Would it be possible to change the appearance of the branch element in struktolab or at least add an option for users who wish the appearance to be like the one from the Wikipedia example?

Research direction
Start by reproducing the branch element in struktolab and compare its diagonal lines with the Wikipedia example shown in the issue. Trace the editor or renderer path responsible for the branch appearance. Done means the diagonals meet at the bottom like the reference, or users can choose that appearance as an option.
