If you want the connections to be straight, why are you using curved lines? That's the problem, I think. I made a diagram similar to yours, using curved lines, and got the behavior you don't want. I then changed the line type to be straight lines, fiddled with the auto-layout properties, and did not get any undesired midpoints.

Thanks for trying it out.

See my video of another test file. Here I reproduce the problem after showing that the straight connectors is selected.

Send in a bug report to omnigraffle@omnigroup.com, and include your movie demonstrating how to trigger the problem. I can't recall the last time I saw them fix an auto-layout bug, so you might have a bit of a wait...

Already done.

They asked for the original file and got it. Now I am waiting.
