Choosing a shape value for your shape scheme or component has an effect on the component's content.

As an example, we may choose the smallComponentShape category to have a cut corner treatment at a 50% value of its height. That will create a diamond-like shape, which in certain cases is likely to clip content. In other cases, such as with dynamic type, or a typography scheme with large fonts, even a less intrusive shape could potentially cut out content.

Therefore, it is recommended to be mindful of how a custom shape manipulates the component and if that shape makes sense for your specific case. One recommendation is to use the built-in UIView’s layoutMargins. By setting it to a custom UIEdgeInset you can get the desired outcome for your content when using a custom shape.
