             total width of the full arrow head
 
-          head_length: float or None (default: 1.5 * head_width)
+          *head_length*: float or None (default: 1.5 * head_width)

+          *overhang*: float (default: 0)
             fraction that the arrow is swept back (0 overhang means
             triangular shape). Can be negative or greater than one.

             if True, the head starts being drawn at coordinate 0
             instead of ending at coordinate 0.
