Connect flow arrows to edge of circles and squares, move text inside object. #20

Closed studieredcorn closed 7 years ago

Currently every flow arrow connects to the center of the circle (process) or center of the square (stock). This makes it difficult to see if flows are inputs or outputs of a process. We should connect the arrow to the edge of the circle or square. Once implemented, the title of the process could go inside the shape to reduce overlap of objects and creating a cleaner diagram on the screen. We would probably want to increase shape sizes for readability and to have a reasonable text size.

This is surprisingly difficult -- I would say moderate/hard.

Also moving text inside may require unreasonably large shapes -- try creating a mockup. Then this would hinge on #23, which in many ways obviates this and several other feature requests.

Closed to focus on shorter term issues.
