draw line arrows in inkscape
inkscape is a nice app for drawing vector figures. but when i tried today to draw a simple one, i couldn't even find the line arrow! fortunately google helps here: http://inkscape.gristle.org/2005-04-25.txt
it's too hard to access this little tiny corner of settings if you don't know!!!
1. draw a line first
2. make it selected
3. click "fill & stroke" dialog
4. in the tab "stoke style", there is arrow style for end markers for all kinda shapes.
hope it'll be useful for others.

Also wanted to add my thanks for your tip -- I'm usually pretty good at figuring such things out, but this was a bit obscure! Many thanks.

For some reason the beginning, middle, and end marker selectors are disabled for me. What gives?

Problem is, that's exactly where I would look for arrows that are an integral part of a line you have drawn. What you can't do in inkscape is add an arrow to an existing line (that someone else has drawn) in a location *you* choose. I often have to edit rubbish drawn by others with no drafting skills, so I *need* arbitrary editing: the highly-structured "you can have it where we say, or not at all" approach is not useful.

Thanks, this is really cool.
However, i think there is a bug in inkscape! my background is black and my line is white, but inkscape draw the arrow heads in black!!! they should follow the line color, or at least provide away to change the color!
am i doing something wrong?

Just noticed how old this post is, however still useful.
Anyway, i found the solution to the color problem. From inkscape itself after you set the markers (arrows or what ever) go and click on
Extensions > Modify Path > Color Markers to Match Stroke
that will fix the color.
