Describe the bug The text label for the "predefined process" shape in the "flowchart" section appears below the shape. I expected it to be within the shape.

The shape "fda" is from the "general" library and is labeled "process" (incorrectly - it should be "predefined process"). It correctly includes the text within the shape. The shape "rfsds" is from the "flowchart" library and is labeled "predefined process". It incorrectly shows the label of the box below the shape.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Create a new flowchart.
  2. Expand the "flowchart" library.
  3. Drag a "predefined process" element to the drawing.
  4. Enter a label on the shape.

Expected behavior I expected the label to be within the box, like this: image

If you select the shape > Click Text tab > Choose Center under Position, does it help?

Yep! That fixes it. Thanks. Is there any way to update the shape in the library to make this the default setting?

Can confirm under Linux/Manjaro and Chromium 103.0.5060.134.

Can you point us to an official specification that says the label must be within the shape?

I don't think there is an "official specification"? I think it's just natural, like the label of a STOP sign on roads is on the sign too, and labels of your door bell might be as well there. Of course it could be below, but all the other shapes in the "Flowchart" have their labels within the shape too, just "predefined process" not. It is easy to be mixed up with labels of arrows/lines, if it's outside: grafik So I think it's more a rule-of-common-sense than a specification. E.g. here: https://www.zenflowchart.com/flowchart#Definition

This issue shouldn't be closed by a bot. So a small ping to keep it alive.
