User:Pixeltoo/Arrow (symbol)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

An arrow is a graphical symbol such as → or ←, used to point or indicate direction, being in its simplest form a line segment with a triangle affixed to one end, and in more complex forms a representation of an actual arrow (e.g. ➵ U+27B5). The direction indicated by an arrow is the one along the length of the line towards the end capped by a triangle.

North arrow

[edit]

North arrow is used in floor plans and maps to indicate the direction to the north.
