New D pad touch controls have gaps between the buttons

The new controls changed how touch control buttons appear in certain situations which has lead to some gaps in the D pad. Note that none of these errors require you to have the customize controls option on.

While simply moving there are gaps in between the Left, Right, Back Buttons and the center button (jump/sneak). I play with jump as the middle button so I can glide my finger from a directional button to the center jump while moving which now only works when gliding directly between forward and jump. Now I can't jump and move in any other direction at the same time like this without coming to a complete hault. These gaps should not be here, there should be a directional input if you are touching within the d pad area. See the first two d pad images for clarification.

What's even worse is that there is now a huge gaping hole for swap jump+sneak players when entering a scafolding. Before the center button, no matter if it was jump or sneak, would stay in the middle of the d pad but now if you have swap j+sn it moves all the buttons to the right. This gap is even worse than the previously mentioned gaps since you can actually mine through it which has lead me to break my scafolding on several occasions. The center button (more specifically the jump button when on swap j+sn) should stay in the center no matter what (this is also prevalent in other actions like swimming). Please refer to the two scafolding images.
