Add more shapes (like Rounded Rectangle)

[DeflateAwning]

A few more shapes would be great!

Ideas:

• Rounded Rectangle (rrect)
• Octagon
• 3d hexagon (sideways and vertical)
• Diamond (esp. for logical flow charts)

Shapes that render well stretched wide horizontally are very valuable. Hexagons don't look great when stretched horizontally, but rounded rectangles and the existing package do.

@DeflateAwning ty!

oh interesting, 3d hexagon could look cool.

rounded rect and diamond you can do:

what's the case for octagon that hexagon doesn't cover?

[DeflateAwning]

I'd love to see rounded rect and diamond added to the Cheat Sheet.

I like that 3D hexagon implemented!

Octagon is just another option for a symbol. It could be used to represent the end of things, as somewhat of a stop sign potentially.

oh, sorry for the confusion, that's just a screenshot from google images. i never considered 3d hexagons before, and that's the first time i've seen it done well.

just gonna leave this one here too

I'd like to see a subroutine/predefined process symbol for flowcharts. I believe constructing one
(with styles, icons, whatever) shouldn't be possible right now

How about an X-Y plot (chart)?
