According to [fss]: Stripes: 6+2+1. Star is contained in imaginary circle of diameter 12.5% of flag height. H&S in imaginary square of sides 25% of flag height. Vertical axe of star and H&S at 25% of flag length. The horizontal axe of the H&S not given, but looks like centered at the upper red stripe. Also not given, the distance between the H&S and the star. [See also here.]

Iʼd say that the circle enscribing the star touches the edge of the imaginary square — at least it is so in the other comparable construction sheets.
