I love Mermaid. But my biggest pain point is having to manually wrap text to keep the shapes compact. It's glaringly obvious just looking at this cheatsheet.

Incorporating an algorithm that figures out the optimal auto-wrapping for each shape to make them compact or, alternatively, one that tries to make all the shapes about the same size, should go hand-in-hand with the automatic layout Mermaid already has.

Any plans?




This would really be a good UX improvement.

But the implementation might be a little tricky.

Please raise an issue so we can discuss further, and add it to roadmap if feasible.
