xLine	Draw a line from current point, along the X axis. You can either specify	manual

Draw a line from current point, along the X axis. You can either specify

this line's length, or which X it should end at.

xLine(sketch: Sketch, length?: number, endAbsolute?: number, tag?: TagDeclarator) -> Sketch

Arguments

Name	Type	Description	Required
sketch	Sketch	Which sketch should this path be added to?	Yes
length	number	How far away along the X axis should this line go? Incompatible with endAbsolute.	No
endAbsolute	number	Which absolute X value should this line go to? Incompatible with length.	No
tag	TagDeclarator	Create a new tag which refers to this line	No

Returns

Sketch - A sketch is a collection of paths.

Examples

exampleSketch = startSketchOn('XZ')
  |> startProfileAt([0, 0], %)
  |> xLine(length = 15)
  |> angledLine({ angle = 80, length = 15 }, %)
  |> line(end = [8, -10])
  |> xLine(length = 10)
  |> angledLine({ angle = 120, length = 30 }, %)
  |> xLine(length = -15)
  |> close()

example = extrude(exampleSketch, length = 10)
