Hello,

I'm trying to create 3 simple curved arrows that make up a full circle using the arrow tool in Fireworks - although I don't seem to be able to easily curve the arrows. Is this done using a path? Or is there another method that i'm missing? Would really appreciate some help.

Many thanks

    Adobe photoshop might suite you here in this case.

    Nice tutorial.

    I cheated and used the 'Pie Chart' Auto shape which cuts out a few steps in
    the process.

    Peter. Good idea on the Pie Chart. I might update my tutorial.

    I didn't even realise that yours was a FW PNG. I Just thought it was an example pic you'd found :) I always name my FW PNG *.fw.png so I know which are which.
