How do you influence position of connectors in a heirarchical Kendo UI Diagram

[Craig]

I have a stack overflow question posted here

 

I am building an organisation chart using Kendo UI's diagramming component
I do not want the user to be able to edit the diagram as it is a read-only representation of positions they have entered previously, however I do want to display the diagram in a particular way.
The layout type I am using is tree with subtype of down. I am using the HeirarchicalDataSourceas the dataSource

The default way the diagram is drawn looks like (default.jpg, attached)

 

However, my boss needs it to look like this: (wanted.jpg, attached)

 

 

So the parent nodes have all child nodes coming from the bottom connector.
I see no way to programmatically influence this. Please help.
