Re: [ferret_users] how to label arrow

[Ansley Manke <ansley.b.manke@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi Yogesh,
Ferret does not have an arrow drawing tool.  You can draw anything with 
line segments, but it can be a bit tedious. This would make a line from 
(1,0) to (2,0). It would be more complicated, but the same idea, to plot 
an arrow in an arbitrary direction.

 yes? go basemap x=-10:10 y=-10:10
 yes? plot/vs/line/over/nolab {1, 2, 1.8, 2, 1.8, 2}, {0, 0, 0.1, 0, 
-0.1, 0}

or with the polygon command

 yes? let arrow_x = {1, 2, 1.8, 2, 1.8, 2, 1}
 yes? let arrow_y = {0, 0, 0.1, 0, -0.1, 0, 0}
 yes? polygon/nolabel/over/color=red/thick arrow_x, arrow_y

Others have suggested that if you have a program like Adobe Illustrator 
available to you, it's easiest to produce your image in Ferret and then 
use Illustrator to add these kinds of finishing touches.
