When you apply corner routing to a UML Markup diagram, it also applies rounding to the background of the option and alternative blocks titles.  It doesn’t look right.

Without rounding:

 

With rounding:

 

I would not expect the red background behind alternative to round as well leaving white space inside of the label container.

Hi @twilio-jyoung 

Try to work on the possibility and see if it fits your requirement.

  • Apply corner rounding only to the connector lines themselves, not the entire shape.
  • This can be achieved by using the "Line" tab in the formatting menu after selecting the route point.
  • You can adjust the corner radius there without affecting the background shape.

This will help to make the sharp corners for the alternative/option block backgrounds while having rounded corners on the connecting lines in your chart UML markup diagram.

 

Hope this helps - Happy to help further!!
Thank you very much and have a great one!
Warm regards
