hi For traditional Chinese used in Taiwan, people generally put commas and periods (full periods) near the center lines of the Chinese characters. But for simplified Chinese in mainland China, these marks are placed within the lower quadrant from the bottom of the glyph, similar to Latins.
Funny that in traditional Chinese literatures, no punctuations were systematically used until the last 100 years, as introduced from western world :) as to the screenshots, I guess those are related to the settings of the font (arphic/uming in this case), and comma does looks to be a little bit too low and overlaps with the next character in vertical mode.
