Arrows

Right click on Line image\LINE.gif, Path image\PATH.gif, Arc image\ARCB.gif or Smooth Path image\SPLINE.gif, to select entities with arrows on.

The ARROWS commands draw entities (paths, arcs, or splines) with an arrowhead at the first node point. Please keep in mind the following:

·   The arrowhead shape and size are determined by ARROWHEAD STYLE (Tools > Set Properties > Arrow Style);

·   Only one style of arrowhead can be used in a drawing.

·   The arrowhead style is independent from arrowheads used in dimensions.

·   You can create notes by combining ARROW entities with text entities.
