Thanks for the update. There would appear to be something odd with Paths in
V2.8.16 at least. The documentation says that the "eye" icon (to the left of the
"chain" icon and the preview) in the Paths dialog should show an open eye if the
path is visible - for me this icon is blank after I have defined a path.
Clicking on this icon after using the arrow script causes the path to reappear
on the image but in orange/red rather than the normal white - perhaps someone
could try this using V2.9 - if it still behaves the same way (the path isn't
shown after the Undo of the arrow script) then it would be worth filing a bug
report. If the path is shown in V2.9 then I would suggest ignoring the problem.
Re-running the arrow script after the Undo still uses the path even though it
isn't visible so for me it isn't a big issue.
