Arguments

Name	Type	Description	Required
sketch	Sketch	Which sketch should this path be added to?	Yes

Returns

Sketch

Examples

exampleSketch = startSketchOn(XZ)
  |> startProfile(at = [0, 0])
  |> line(endAbsolute = [5, 10])
  |> line(endAbsolute = [-10, 10], tag = $lineToIntersect)
  |> line(endAbsolute = [0, 20])
  |> angledLineThatIntersects(angle = 80, intersectTag = lineToIntersect, offset = 10)
  |> close()
