I'm trying to create an arrow that looks like the following:

o
  \
   \
    \                                  o
     x---------                    /
                |                   /
                |                  /
                ------------>x

So, basically I want a normal Cascading arrow with a single polyline at either end.  Above the x's are the connection between cascading and polyline, and the o's are the origin and destination boxes respectively.

Thoughts I've had are to create three arrows and programmatically force the connection points between arrows, and handle selection and manipulation so that the user has the correct experience.  But this seems like a lot of effort (that I'd prefer not to get into )

So I'm wondering if anyone has any insights that might make it a lot simpler?

Thanks heaps in advance!

Here's what the DrawArrow event handler could look like:

private void fc_DrawArrow(object sender, MindFusion.FlowChartX.ArrowDrawArgs e)
{
  // assuming there are exactly 5 segments
  PointF cp0 = e.Arrow.ControlPoints[0];
  PointF cp1 = e.Arrow.ControlPoints[1];
  PointF cp2 = e.Arrow.ControlPoints[2];
  PointF cp3 = e.Arrow.ControlPoints[3];
  PointF cp4 = e.Arrow.ControlPoints[4];
  PointF cp5 = e.Arrow.ControlPoints[5];

  PointF xp1 = new PointF(0, 0);
  PointF xp2 = new PointF(0, 0);
  if (cp0.X == cp1.X)
  {
    xp1 = new PointF((cp0.X + cp2.X) / 2, cp2.Y);
    xp2 = new PointF((cp5.X + cp3.X) / 2, cp3.Y);
  }
  else
  {
    xp1 = new PointF(cp2.X, (cp0.Y + cp2.Y) / 2);
    xp2 = new PointF(cp3.X, (cp5.Y + cp3.Y) / 2);
  }

  PointF[] points = new PointF[] { cp0, xp1, cp2, cp3, xp2, cp5 };

  System.Drawing.Pen pen = new System.Drawing.Pen(Color.Black, 0);
  e.Graphics.DrawLines(pen, points);
  pen.Dispose();
}
 

The control point handles would still be displayed at their original coordinates, i.e. the seconds and the next-to-last handles won't lie on the arrow.
