Drawn Arrows for Pointing and Direction
Add drawn arrows to your designs: hand-drawn and sharp arrows on transparent backgrounds that steer attention to the button, figure or detail that matters.
Start designingArrows for Pointing and Direction
What does an arrow do in a post?
It decides the reading order. The eye follows an arrow before reading a single word, so you can say look here first, then here. It is the simplest tool for controlling the eye's path through a busy design.
What can you design with them?
Steering attention to offers and prices
Explaining steps in tutorial posts
Pointing at a button or link
Before and after comparisons
Interactive story designs
How many arrows should a design use?
One to point, or an even series if you are explaining ordered steps. Two arrows pointing at different things cancel each other out, because pointing at everything means pointing at nothing.
الأسئلة الشائعة
Can I rotate an arrow in any direction?
Yes. Rotate or flip it inside Andalusi to point anywhere, so one shape serves up, right and left without hunting for another version.
Can I change an arrow's colour?
Yes, adjust it inside Andalusi. Pick a colour that contrasts with both the background and the text, since an arrow in the text's own colour reads as part of it and stops pointing.
Where should the arrow sit relative to its target?
A small gap away rather than touching it, and at a slight angle rather than perfectly straight. A little tilt makes the gesture look natural, while dead-straight reads as a technical diagram.
