    Mau,

     

    You mention that this has been "YEARS" but Affinity Designer was only released in November 2014, so barely over 2 years. In perspective, it isn't all that long....

     

    1) "over 2 years" contains exactly that word: "YEARS". 2) It isn't all that long?? In software development that's ages!

     

    For all who still expect the arrowhead feature to come soon, just a little reminder: actually, it has been on the road map from the very beginning in Aug 2014

    https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/842-affinity-designer-feature-roadmap/&p=2972

    and it still hasn't been implemented.

     

    Last month, the company I'm working at, decided with heavy heart to go with Adobe Illustrator for another 2 years, instead of switching to an alternative like Affinity (like it was planned). In the case of Affinity we just came to the conclusion that it seems to be made more for artists (mangas, illustrations, etc.; see screenshots on homepage) than for designers/publishers who also need to create charts, presentations, etc. - for which that boring stuff (like arrowheads) is essential.

  2. I am waiting for this feature, too. And I also can't understand why this issue is still being ignored (AI and Corel Draw implemented it years ago).

    I have to use arrows all the time for overviews, diagrams, graphs, organigrams, etc.

    The brush hack is no option for me since it uses a pixel images, i.e. a loss of quality. Workarounds might be an option if you have to draw only 1-2 arrows but 10-20? No, thanks.

     

    So, the implementation of an arrow tool will be a must before I buy Designer.
