I don't know any workaround for this :-(
The quickest solution will be editing the exported image with any image editor.

As a work-around, try to use the "Add vertical space" and "Remove

These are well-known bugs of the current sequence diagrams implementation.
We are working in a new implementation, from scratch, that we hope it

Sorry for the inconveniences.
