🌸 NAME 🌸

sdata_lines — okay bestie, this is the command that manages the secondary arbitrary line set attached to the current view. It’s giving “my own little line set, attached to the current view” energy. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

sdata_lines draw [0|1]
sdata_lines color [r g b]
sdata_lines line_width [width]
sdata_lines points [{{x y z} {x y z} ...}]
sdata_lines snap [0|1]
view sdata_lines draw [0|1]
view sdata_lines color [r g b]
view sdata_lines line_width [width]
view sdata_lines points [{{x y z} {x y z} ...}]
view sdata_lines snap [0|1]

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Okay so here’s the tea: sdata_lines manages a second view-associated line set that is not tied to database geometry. It accepts the same subcommands as data_lines: draw, color, line_width, points, and snap. 🫶

Each subcommand reports the current value when invoked without a new setting — yes, it will absolutely read you the current value if you don’t hand it a new setting. For points, the supplied Tcl-style point list must contain an even number of 3D points because lines are defined in endpoint pairs. No cap. ✨

The same functionality is also available through the view sdata_lines ... command form. Same slay, different syntax. 🦋

The related data_lines command edits a separate line set in the same view. They’re siblings, not twins, bestie. 🎀

🎀 EXAMPLES 🎀

Example 1. Create a highlighted secondary guide line set through the view command form.

mged> view sdata_lines points {{0 -1000 0} {0 1000 0} {-1000 10 0}
{1000 10 0}} mged> view sdata_lines color 255 0 0 mged> view
sdata_lines line_width 100 mged> view sdata_lines draw 1

This defines two guide lines in the secondary line set, colors them red, widens them, and enables drawing. Iconic. 🔥
