angledLineThatIntersects	Function in std::sketch	Draw an angled line from the current origin, constructing a line segment such that the newly created line intersects the desired target line segment.	manual

Draw an angled line from the current origin, constructing a line segment such that the newly created line intersects the desired target line segment.

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

example = extrude(exampleSketch, length = 10)

Arguments

Name	Type	Description	Required
sketch	Sketch	Which sketch should this path be added to?	Yes
angle	number(Angle)	Which angle should the line be drawn at?	Yes
intersectTag	TaggedEdge	The tag of the line to intersect with.	Yes
offset	number(Length)	The offset from the intersecting line.	No
tag	TagDecl	Create a new tag which refers to this line.	No

Returns

Sketch - A sketch is a collection of paths.
