Expand stroke with arrowheads


Recommended Posts

I found interesting thing with expanding stroke with arrowheads.
If I trying to expand stroke of unclosed path with center alignment - everything is okay, but when I using inside or outside stroke alignment, shape is losing arrowheads. It's a problem because unclosed path with different stroke alignment looks same whatever is it center or inside/outside. 

This problem same for both Designer versions PC or iPad.

Easy workaround: Change stroke alignment to center. Inner/outer alignment does not differ from center alignment for open curves currently. So the expand stroke issue is more a (avoidable) side effect.

There is a lengthy thread about inner/outer alignment not working in case of open curves.

Thank you for this workaround! It didn't save me the 10 minutes of reconstructing arrowheads with the pen tool and putting the strokes in place, but I hope it might help someone else coming across this problem.
