Arguments

Name	Type	Description	Required
sketch	Sketch	Which sketch should this path be added to?	Yes
angle	number	Which angle should the line be drawn at?	Yes
length	number	Draw the line this distance along the given angle. Only one of length, lengthX, lengthY, endAbsoluteX, endAbsoluteY can be given.	No
lengthX	number	Draw the line this distance along the X axis. Only one of length, lengthX, lengthY, endAbsoluteX, endAbsoluteY can be given.	No
lengthY	number	Draw the line this distance along the Y axis. Only one of length, lengthX, lengthY, endAbsoluteX, endAbsoluteY can be given.	No
endAbsoluteX	number	Draw the line along the given angle until it reaches this point along the X axis. Only one of length, lengthX, lengthY, endAbsoluteX, endAbsoluteY can be given.	No
endAbsoluteY	number	Draw the line along the given angle until it reaches this point along the Y axis. Only one of length, lengthX, lengthY, endAbsoluteX, endAbsoluteY can be given.	No
tag	TagDeclarator	Create a new tag which refers to this line	No

Returns

Sketch

  |> startProfile(at = [0, 0])
  |> yLine(endAbsolute = 15)
  |> angledLine(angle = 30, length = 15)
  |> line(end = [8, -10])
  |> yLine(endAbsolute = 0)
  |> close()
