I need an arrow like the following:

I tried



newcommand{wedgearrow}{mathrel{/}joinrelssearrow} %stmaryrd


but it doesn't work well.

            Similar to Ahrtaler's answer, the difference being that it also cooperates with subscripts (and all math styles) and becomes bold if one is in bold mode. I recommend this thread for further reading.

            EDITs:




            1. added mathrel at Eclipse Sun's suggestion.

            2. Made the macro detect the font weight, too, so the arrow goes bold in boldmath or boldsymbol, just like the standard arrows.

            3. Added round line caps and joins, motivated by Joey's comment.

            • looks a bit smarter than mine. But it is harder to understand.

              – Ahrtaler
              yesterday











            • Thanks! Should we use something like mathrel so that the spacing looks better?

              – Eclipse Sun
              yesterday











            • @EclipseSun Yes, that's a great suggestion!

              yesterday











            • @EclipseSun Now it also sees the font weight, Of course, you can change the appearance (angles, baseline, line width etc.) at will without the need to learn many commands, and the line joins and so on are automatically appealing. Loading TikZ *only for that might be a bit much, but if you are considering inventing more symbols that might be a good choice.

            • Don't the default arrows (in CM at least) have round line caps instead of flat?

            I think you could do something like that:



            documentclass{scrartcl}

            usepackage{tikz}

            newlength{textsize}

            makeatletter
            setlength{textsize}{f@size pt}
            makeatother

            newcommand{wedgearrow}{%
            resizebox {!} {textsize} {
            begin{tikzpicture}
            draw[->, line width = 2pt] (0,0) -- (.5,1) -- (1,0);
            end{tikzpicture}}
            }

            begin{document}
            Hi this wedgearrow is a wedgearrow
            end{document}

              With mathpalette: the slash is resized to the same vertical size as the arrow, a bit widened for compensating the stroke width and vertically placed to fit.



              Some manual adjustment is needed for getting the tops to meet.



              documentclass{article}
              usepackage{amsmath}
              usepackage{stmaryrd}
              usepackage{graphicx}

              makeatletter
              newcommand{wedgearrow}{mathrel{mathpalettewedge@arrowrelax}}
              newcommand{wedge@arrow}[2]{%
              begingroup
              sboxz@{$m@th#1ssearrow$}%
              sboxtw@{resizebox{!}{dimexprhtz@+dpz@}{raisebox{depth}{$m@th#1/$}}}%
              raisebox{-dpz@}{scalebox{1.1}[1]{boxtw@}}% slash
              mathchoice{mkern-2.5mu}{mkern-2.5mu}{mkern-3mu}{mkern-3.5mu}%
              boxz@ % arrow
              endgroup
              }
              makeatother

              begin{document}

              $Kwedgearrow L_{Kwedgearrow L_{Kwedgearrow L}}$

              {Huge$Kwedgearrow L$}

                        • @EclipseSun Now it also sees the font weight, Of course, you can change the appearance (angles, baseline, line width etc.) at will without the need to learn many commands, and the line joins and so on are automatically appealing.

                        @EclipseSun Now it also sees the font weight, Of course, you can change the appearance (angles, baseline, line width etc.) at will without the need to learn many commands, and the line joins and so on are automatically appealing. Loading TikZ *only for that might be a bit much, but if you are considering inventing more symbols that might be a good choice.

                        Don't the default arrows (in CM at least) have round line caps instead of flat?
