Rob,

I'll echo what jessem said above. This bug has been driving me nuts for a couple of years, and all along I thought there was some obscure feature I just hadn't found yet. I finally decided to get to the bottom of the issue today after much cursing and anguish, and eventually found your post. You've perfectly nailed the problem here, and it's actually quite discouraging to learn that it's unlikely to be fixed any time soon. I use OG exclusively for creating orthogonal diagrams with automatic layout, and this bug represents a colossal time suck for me since I have to make so many manual fixes.

The TreeTool script (available elsewhere in the forum) is moderately helpful, but it's hardly a fix.

Omni team: Realistically, when is this likely to be addressed?
