After recently upgrading to V17 I stared using "Smart Arrows" which are very cool. Unfortunately, I placed several on an elevations sheet with a arrow weight of 5 instead of 2 and now have mud. Is their a way to globally edit the arrows? Fairly simple to redo the arrows on this sheet or change each individual arrow head but I'm curious if their is a better way?

Change/Text/Arrow/Weight/2, and select by area.
Yes, it's strange that Smart Arrows are changed via Text, but that is where you make them.

I'm enjoying them :)

Roger's methods works on the just the arrowhead...exactly what I needed in this case.
Mark Wilham suggested on the email list the following which affects both leader and arrowhead:
Use Change/weight - use a mask: Entity/Smart Arrow - page dn 3 times, it's at the end of the list.

Surprised no one has chimed in on my antiquated method of using line-weight rather than mapping to pens ;)
