Staff Sean P Posted January 13, 2020 Staff Share Posted January 13, 2020 Thanks for the file Oval, I've passed it onto Development to look into. Interestingly just tweaking the object's rotation does correct the arrowhead, but sadly not the actual stroke's shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example, here's the segment of your curve that causes our problem, zoomed in in Illustrator, before and after expand stroke... I think I've fixed ours now and I'm just testing the solution and making it sure it hasn't had any side-effects... predick, A_B_C, Mithferion and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oval Posted January 29, 2020 Author Share Posted January 29, 2020 Sometimes it works better, sometimes not, @MattP. Depends on the coordinates. Example with two duplicates: Mithferion 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oval Posted January 31, 2020 Author Share Posted January 31, 2020 To be clear: This is the result of expand stroke, smart nodes plus outside of line: stroke was 1 mm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jorict Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 On mac, in my experience all line endings like arrows are not expanded at all. still persists in version 1.8.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
