Previously, `xLine`, `xLineTo`, `yLine` and `yLineTo` used positional arguments. Now: - `xLineTo` and `yLineTo` have been removed - `xLine` and `yLine` both use keyword arguments: - `length`, optional (i.e. a relative distance along the X or Y axis) - `endAbsolute` optional (i.e. an absolute point along the X or Y axis) - `tag` optional - Exactly one of `length` or `endAbsolute` must be given. Not both, not neither. For example: ``` // Old way |> xLine(6.04, %) |> yLineTo(20, %, $base) // New way |> xLine(length = 6.04) |> yLine(endAbsolute = 20, tag = $base) ``` This also improves some of the general-purpose keyword arguments code in modeling app's TS codebase.
