Hi,

This may have been raised already but I couldn't find it...

I need to draw lines with arrows at the end.
In GDI+, I would use Pen.StartCap and Pen.EndCap, specifying LineCap.ArrowAnchor as a value.

I couldn't find a way to draw arrow lines in PdfSharp, XPen doesn't expose StartCap / EndCap and its LineCap property can only be flat/round or square.

Thank you !

Hello!

We don't use GDI+ when we create PDF files.
That's why XPen only offers a subset of the capabilities of GDI+ - the subset that is compatible with PDF.

StartCap/EndCap and certain options of LineCap would have to be handled by our own implementation to show in PDF.

There are no plans to implement StartCap/EndCap in the foreseeable future.
You can use Paths to draw lines with arrows at the end.

Thank you.
I'll have a look at the Paths option you mention.
