I am trying to add some arrow along the line. the end arrow seems good but the arrows in the middle of the line isn't align with line. How can I make the middle arrow on the line?

I am using "Fill and stroke" property to add arrows:

Solution

  • The arrow is aligned with the mean of the two handles at that point, and you have a corner at this point. As Inkscape does not support individually set midmarkers, there is no work around with your curve defined as a single path using the midmarkers.

    The solution is thus to

    1) Break path at the point where you want the markers (edit path tool F2, then Break path icon) 2) Break apart path (Ctrl-Shift-K)

    Then you can group the broken bits of your path (Ctrl-G), but combining them again will lead to other problems.
