Dynamic Connectors do not create a loop, but connect with a straight line

Aspose.Diagram Product Family

When connecting from LEFT of one shape to the LEFT of another shape (similarly from RIGHT to RIGHT), the dynamic connectors do not create a loop.
They connect the 2 shapes via a straight line- this doesnt look correct.

PFA test case.

@asthac,
We managed to replicate the problem of incorrect layout of the connector line. It has been logged under the ticket ID DIAGRAMJAVA-50521 in our bug tracking system. We have linked your post to this ticket and will keep you informed regarding any available updates. We are sorry for the inconvenience caused.

We can set the appearance of the connecting line, but it is not working in your scenario:

[Java]

// set dynamic connector appearance
connectorShape.setConnectorsType(ConnectorsTypeValue.RIGHT_ANGLE);

Best Regards,
Imran Rafique
