	Try calling DiagramLink.addLabel and LinkLabel.setControlPointPosition(-1,dx,dy). If you are already too invested in using DiagramLink.text property, you could instead implement custom drawing by replacing prototype.updateCanvasElements function as snippet here shows for nodes: https://mindfusion.dev/Forum/YaBB.pl?num=1410270450/4#4 but for links modify the this.textRenderer.rectangles[0] to position it relatively to the target node. There could be more than one rectangles only if you use LinkTextStyle.Follow. Regards, Slavcho Mindfusion

	Re triangles, we've ported ShapeNode.polygonalTextLayout property from our dotnet code, please find new scripts here: https://mindfusion.dev/_beta/jsdiag_shape_txt.zip You can now arrange text in shapes like this: Regards, Slavcho Mindfusion
