    Look at the Smart Shape rectangles. #7 specifically. These offer more options for the corners.

    Sorry Gary, all three (1, 2, 7) let you have curved, flat, cornered & inward curved.

    They are all the same shape with different settings and sizing applied.

    Only Shape 7 is implemented correctly by the developer(s); Shapes 1 & 2 have been distorted at some point.
    To evidence this, Import all three Shapes and change all to rounded corners throughout.
    Next, use the blue Height and Width controls to get the smallest "circle".
    In the Select Tool examine W&H to see the distortion.
    Change all corners to cut rectangles. Only Shape 7 presents a regular cruciform; the others are off.
