Help with Arrow Thickness

Question

I need help with making the arrows thicker for the following:

\documentclass[landscape, 12pt]{report}

\usepackage{hyperref}
\usepackage{tikz}
\newcommand{\myarrow}{\raisebox{11ex}{\tikz \draw[->] (0,0)--++(0.5,0);}}

\begin{document}

\begin{Form}
    \ChoiceMenu[print,combo,default=Box 1,name=box1,color=0.862745 0.0784314 0.235294]{}{Item 1,Item 2, Item 3, Item 4, Item 5}
    \quad\myarrow\quad
    \ChoiceMenu[print,combo,default=Box 2,name=box2, color=0.196078 0.803922 0.196078]{}{Item 1,Item 2, Item 3, Item 4, Item 5}

 \end{Form}

 \end{document}

Any help would be great, thanks.

As in \draw[->, line width=1mm]? – Alenanno Jun 23 '16 at 12:51 — Alenanno, Jun 23 '16 at 12:51

You can arbitrarily change the line width of the line by adding this to the options, like so:

\draw[->, line width=1mm] (0,0) -- (1,0);

You can use any measurement system like points (pt), metric (cm, mm), inches (in) and so on.

But how do you draw an increasingly thick arrow? – hussain Jan 08 '23 at 20:57

In addition to Alenanno's answer, you can use

\draw[->, thick] (0,0) -- (1,0);

or very thick or ultra thick.
