Comment 5 for bug 492318

If you have connectors that "avoid" objects (more like if you have objects that you tell connectors to avoid), mid markers will show up. Given that, I am going to close this bug report as it doesn't currently reflect an actual issue.

Just so you know, curved connectors were just added to current bzr and will be in 0.48.

As for how mid-markers work, we do this according to the svg specification, so it is really not up to us. I will say though, I like the current behavior of mid-markers because it gives you the control to chose where they are displayed.

If you feel that this report was closed in error, please feel free to re-open this report.
