We continue migrating KCL stdlib functions to use keyword arguments. Next up is the `angledLine` family of functions (except `angledLineThatIntersects, which will be a quick follow-up). Before vs. after: `angledLine({angle = 90, length = 3}, %, $edge)` => `angledLine(angle = 90, length = 3, tag = $edge)` `angledLineOfXLength({angle = 90, length = 3}, %, $edge)` => `angledLine(angle = 90, lengthX = 3, tag = $edge)` `angledLineOfYLength({angle = 90, length = 3}, %, $edge)` => `angledLine(angle = 90, lengthY = 3, tag = $edge)` `angledLineToX({angle = 90, length = 3}, %, $edge)` => `angledLine(angle = 90, endAbsoluteX = 3, tag = $edge)` `angledLineToY({angle = 90, length = 3}, %, $edge)` => `angledLine(angle = 90, endAbsoluteY = 3, tag = $edge)`

Draw a line relative to the current origin to a specified distance away from the current position along the 'y' axis.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
yLine(
|
|
sketch: Sketch,
|
|
length?: number,
|
|
endAbsolute?: number,
|
|
tag?: TagDeclarator,
|
|
): Sketch
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Arguments
|
|
|
|
| Name | Type | Description | Required |
|
|
|----------|------|-------------|----------|
|
|
| `sketch` | [`Sketch`](/docs/kcl/types/Sketch) | Which sketch should this path be added to? | Yes |
|
|
| `length` | [`number`](/docs/kcl/types/number) | How far away along the Y axis should this line go? Incompatible with `endAbsolute`. | No |
|
|
| `endAbsolute` | [`number`](/docs/kcl/types/number) | Which absolute Y value should this line go to? Incompatible with `length`. | No |
|
|
| [`tag`](/docs/kcl/types/tag) | [`TagDeclarator`](/docs/kcl/types#tag-declaration) | Create a new tag which refers to this line | No |
|
|
|
|
### Returns
|
|
|
|
[`Sketch`](/docs/kcl/types/Sketch)
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Examples
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
exampleSketch = startSketchOn(XZ)
|
|
|> startProfileAt([0, 0], %)
|
|
|> yLine(length = 15)
|
|
|> angledLine(angle = 30, length = 15)
|
|
|> line(end = [8, -10])
|
|
|> yLine(length = -5)
|
|
|> close()
|
|
|
|
example = extrude(exampleSketch, length = 10)
|
|
```
