Project: QGIS
Version: 2.18.0
QGIS 2.18 adds support for orienting north arrows in the composer to True North. Previously all arrows were aligned to grid north, which is unsuitable for polar regions or non-north up projections (such as some South African projection systems). Now, you can choose to orient arrows to either grid north or true north. There's also an optional offset angle, which can be used to specify a grid convergence to make your arrows orient to magnetic north!
