Improve context pad position for L-shaped sequence flows #1198

Open mschoe opened 5 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

The context pad for sequence flows is always displayed in the top-right of the bounding box. This is problematic, if I model L-Shaped flows where the pad is potentially far away from the actual flow:

delete l-shaped long sequence flows

Describe the solution you'd like

What would be your expected position for the delete icon?

volkergersabeck commented 5 years ago

Options could be at the beginning or end of the sequence flow, such that it is always close to the line.
