Inconsistent vertical placements #235

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

An interesting comparison:

quartered first and fourth azure seme de lys or; second and third gules, three 
lions passant in pale or

is not emblazoned the same as

quartered first and fourth azure seme de lys or; second and third gules, three 
lions passant 1,1,1 or

-- This is because placement by rows uses a generic calculation engine which 
requires charge bounding boxes (The spaces into which charges fit) to be 
square. The in pale placement is explicitly coded and so can be made 
rectangular. I should probably have special handling that recognises vertical 
arrangements...
