ARROW (5/02/2023) Draw a line with an arrowhead.
ARROW(Start,Stop) draws a line with an arrow from Start to Stop (points should be vectors of length 2 or 3, or matrices with 2 or 3 columns), and returns the graphics handle of the arrow(s). By itself, ARROW will use the mouse to allow selection.
ARROW DEMO & ARROW DEMO2 show 3-D & 2-D demos of the capabilities of ARROW.
ARROW PROPERTIES shows the properties that can be set (length, base angle, tip angle, width, which ends have arrowheads, etc.)
