Actually this never was a "feature", but what you see on the wiki is a workaround that used to work. Now when you apply a line style, the arrow size changes according to the line thickness of the style, so I guess someone else might say it's been fixed. An alternate workaround could be to create a line with a length of 1-pt (some nominal value), then attach an arrow. Then you could put this at the end of a line and adjust the line size/color and arrow size/color independently. Using the spinboxes in Properties will help you place the arrows with precision and consistency, and of course grouping and copying will save work too. I'll append/edit the wiki page when I get a chance. Greg
