[vtkusers] Do you have a nice arrow?

[Simon J. Rees]

You can do exactly what you suggest by using vtkAppendPolyData to join a
cone and a cylinder. This can then be used as a source for vtkGlyph. If you
set the actor to have a wireframe representation you will get simple arrows.
A question like this was asked earlier in the year so you should find other
details by searching the archives.
