Hello,

How does one draw a dashed arrow (without getting a dashed arrowhead)?

Minimal example:

\startMPpage drawarrow origin--(1cm,1cm) ; drawarrow origin--(-1cm,1cm) dashed evenly ; \stopMPpage

Is this a bug?

more a side effect

def _finarr text t = if autoarrows : set_ahlength (t) fi ; draw arrowpath _apth t ; % arrowpath added fill arrowhead _apth t ; begingroup ; save dashed ; def dashed expr d = enddef ; draw arrowhead _apth t ; endgroup ; enddef;

or:

def _finarr text t = if autoarrows : set_ahlength (t) fi ; draw arrowpath _apth t ; % arrowpath added fill arrowhead _apth t ; draw arrowhead _apth t dashed nullpicture ; enddef;

To be complete I've added an undashed operator: \startMPpage drawarrow origin--(1cm, 1cm) dashed evenly withcolor red undashed ; drawarrow origin--(1cm,-1cm) dashed evenly withcolor blue ; \stopMPpage ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
