    <title>Description</title>

    <para>The <link
linkend="class-gtkarrow"><classname>gtk.Arrow</classname></link> is used to
draw simple arrows that point in one of the four cardinal directions
(gtk.ARROW_UP, gtk.ARROW_DOWN, gtk.ARROW_LEFT, or gtk.ARROW_RIGHT). The
shadow style of the arrow can be one of gtk.SHADOW IN, gtk.SHADOW OUT,
gtk.ETCHED IN, or gtk.ETCHED OUT.</para>

    <para>A <link
linkend="class-gtkarrow"><classname>gtk.Arrow</classname></link> will fill
any space alloted to it, but since it is inherited from <link
linkend="class-gtkmisc"><classname>gtk.Misc</classname></link>, it can be
padded and/or aligned, to fill exactly the space desired.</para>

    <para>Arrows are created with a call to <link
linkend="constructor-gtkarrow"><methodname>gtk.Arrow</methodname>()</link>.
The direction or style of an arrow can be changed after creation by using
<link
linkend="method-gtkarrow--set"><methodname>arrow_set</methodname>()</link>.</para>
