    Default Please fix the arrow head bug :)

    Select Freehand and Brush Tool (N)
    Set line width to 4
    Set arrowhead to the first one
    Draw some arrows, not touching.
    Disable Sketch Mode
    Draw 3 more arrows, all starting at the same point but heading in different directions.
    The 3rd arrow head will flip
    Draw more arrows, not touching.
    These will all be backwards.
    Start a new document. Arrow will be the right way round again.

    Xara Photo & Graphic Designer 6 according to M4R5's profile.

    But more importantly, what are you hoping to do or are you just finding what my grandmother used to refer to as hachorns (faults).

    Also in the trial of 9 though, so it's been around for while.

    It's because you are reversing the path in your step 6.
    To reverse the reversal start drawing again from the node at the last arrow head. IOW: The opposite to what you did in step 6.

    I still think it's a bug. Particularly as there's no "flip start and end" button. Possibly it's Ctrl + Alt + Shift + F...

    To reverse a line:
    * Select the line
    * Got to the line tool
    * Click the "Reverse Paths" button on the infobar

    Handy. But new lines still remain backward until you try Sledger's solution. That makes it a bug in my book.
