Package: pgf
Version: 1.00-1
Severity: normal
Hello !
While creating an export driver for pgf from xfig, I came across a problem
with arrow heads and arc
paths. In the following code:
\begin{pgfpicture}
\pgfmoveto{\pgfpoint{0pt}{0pt}}
\pgfpatharc{270}{-1}{25pt}
\pgfsetarrowsend{latex}
\pgfsetarrowsstart{latex}
\pgfusepath{stroke}%
\end{pgfpicture}
The end arrow head doesn't point in the right direction. More precisely, if
you take a close look at
the pdf produced, the arrow head does seem to go up instead of following the
direction it should take.
Funnily enough, if you replace -1 by anything which is not in the range of
about -24:-1, the arrow
head is pointing at the right direction.
I guess it must be in the code to resize the head of the path so that the
arrow doesn't overlap with
it.
Thanks for considering this report !
