Re: [Visualpython-users] arrow shaftwidth question

That indeed is probably it. As you said in another note, this behavior can 
be seen in the cross-product demo: when an arrow gets very short, we shrink 
the whole thing. The reason for doing this is to provide some visual cue as 
long as possible for there being an arrow present. If we were to keep the 
shaft width fixed for very short arrows, we wouldn't be able to show an 
arrow-like object.

It is of course possible that there is some other solution to this; perhaps 
someone can suggest a better solution to the problem of very short arrows.
