Can it draw curves with arrow heads? If so, I'm ditching Affinity Designer...

Oh yes, please someone answer this. I have used adobe illustrator for 15 years - then affinity designer for a few more years. I just want vector graphics with arrows without enormous subscription fees - damnit!

Pretty sure inkscape can do this?

Don't know if it can.. However inkscape is HORRIBLE across the board when compared to commercial apps like affinity designer and illustrator.

The $50 one time cost for affinity designer is essentially free, when factoring in its improvements over inkscape.

Arrowheads are included in v1.7, it's in beta but freely available. The current general release is v1.6.5, I think this beta will turn into a general release in July. Hope this helps...

It seems so. Just tried it quickly. Can't scale the arrowhead independently of the line though, like you can in Illustrator.
