Thanks. Obviously a bug in the Windows version - there's a right
answer, if you make an arrow head 8 times the width of a line, it
should be visibly 8 times the width, and it is not in your Windows
document.
There's a problem, yes there's a bug in the Windows version, however it
is not in entering the end caps width/height (which would be trivially
fixable), it is in rendering the caps.
The problem is if I fix the render problem, every existing Windows
document will immediately have arrow heads much bigger than the last
time it was rendered.
It seems to me the height is off by a factor of 2 and the width by 4.
Amazing that 10 years could pass and Dave is the first person to spot
this. Also hard to believe it did not show up in my testing, getting
line rendering right took some effort.
Possibly all the testing was done with Draw files
...and that was this weeks 2 hours spent on RISC OS software.
