How to draw double-lined arrows?

Postby LarsBK » Wed Oct 22, 2008 9:51 pm

Hi,

could someone help me with drawing double-lined arrows?

I did an internet search, but I only found double arrow markes. What I'd like to have is an arrow which has two parallel base lines.
Do I have to build up every arrow out of two lines and an arrow with an invisible line? Or is there a simple solution?

BR,

Lars

Unfortunately, I think you do. There's no way to set a line's stroke so that the center of the line is different from the outer edge. This is similar to having a gradient which follows the curves of a line, which is also impossible.
