Arrowheads Appear to Invert in PowerPoint PSS ID Number: Q64911 Article last modified on 09-25-1991 PSS database name: W_PowerPt

2.00

WINDOWS

Summary:

When drawing short lines with double arrowheads in Microsoft PowerPoint for Windows, the arrowheads may appear to invert (may look like a “bow tie”). This is easiest to see with the largest line style. This behavior also occurs in PowerPoint for the Macintosh and results because the arrowhead size is a function of line thickness.

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in PowerPoint for Windows version 2.00. We are researching this problem and will post new information here as it becomes available.
