Description

When using the arrow item in the map composer, the line of the arrow goes beyond the arrowhead (see attached screenshot).
It worked well with QGIS 2.x.
As I don't want the arrowhead to be round, I use these parameters:
  • Arrow outline width: 0 mm
  • Arrow head width: 3 mm

  • Regression? changed from No to Yes

#2 Updated by Marco Hugentobler over 5 years ago

QGIS 2.18 was moving the end arrow by half the arrow width. It seems to me we can just use this solution for QGIS3 too. https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/pull/9129 provides a pull request.
