I have drawn a line segment of width 0.5 pt and added Arrowhead 1 (a simple V-like arrowhead) to an end of it. However, the arrowhead that appears has a line width of 1 pt, and indeed seems to have this line width regardless of the width of the line segment. How do I change the arrowhead line thickness to match the line segment width? (I need to make hundreds of these arrows with different line widths and so would prefer a solution that scales well.) Thanks.

UPDATE: As one attempted workaround, I thought perhaps I could build the artwork at a scale at which all arrow line segments are naturally 1 pt wide, then select "Scale with object" for all line segments, and scale down the artwork as a whole by 50%. However this also doesn't work -- see the screenshot below. (I achieved the "Want" line below by applying "Convert Outline to Object" to the arrow, but I do need to keep the arrows as outlines rather than convert them to objects.)
Yes, it doesn't work.
Here's my workaround. Attached
Oddly, "Convert to Curves" (available in the Edit menu) does not seem to be allowed for arrows in my version of X8. Only "Convert Outline to Object" is permitted, and applying this has the downside that the arrow can no longer be edited as an arrow using the Shape Tool.
