Legend:
| is the edge of the board (to help illustrate which edge of the board we're on)
o is the pin header in question (0.1" or whatever)
-> is the arrow label
You'd think that the meaning of an arrow on a PCB is obvious. Even I would've thought this was a dumb question a month ago. But I managed to confuse myself with a PCB that had the arrow drawn between the pins and the edge of the board, because I was suddenly unsure if the arrows were being drawn "inwards vs outwards" with respect to the pin (i.e., moving the arrow to the other side of the pin would require flipping it to stay points towards or away from the pin), or if the arrows were being drawn with respect to the board edge.
Does anyone with board layout experience have some rules of thumb to go by here? I personally feel like it would be reasonable to assert that arrows ideally shouldn't be between pins and the board edge, to absolutely avoid any possible ambiguity.
