Changes the appearance of the arrow. All arguments are optional:

Keyword Arguments:

angle

Orientation of the arrow in degrees. Default is 0; arrow pointing to the left.

headLen

Length of the arrow head, from tip to base. default=20

headWidth

Width of the arrow head at its base. If headWidth is specified, it overrides tipAngle.

tipAngle

Angle of the tip of the arrow in degrees. Smaller values make a ‘sharper’ arrow. default=25

baseAngle

Angle of the base of the arrow head. Default is 0, which means that the base of the arrow head is perpendicular to the arrow tail.

tailLen

Length of the arrow tail, measured from the base of the arrow head to the end of the tail. If this value is None, no tail will be drawn. default=None

tailWidth

Width of the tail. default=3

pen

The pen used to draw the outline of the arrow.

brush

The brush used to fill the arrow.

pxMode

If True, then the arrow is drawn as a fixed size regardless of the scale of its parents (including the ViewBox zoom level).
