change color of arrowhead

Hi,
How do I change the colour of an arrow head from black to (e.g.) red? I can change the line colour but it seems not to affect the color of the arrow head.
Any ideas are much appreciated !

Hi,
Its a bit non-intuitive, you need to use an extension:

Hi Peter,
The fact that an arrowhead (which actually is a marker in SVG) cannot inherit the line color is a well-known shortcoming in SVG. SVG 2.0 will adress this issue, but it will be some time until this is a recommendation.
Until then, you have to use this extension ...
