drawing a line?

hertzcastle

hi!
how do i draw a line from one set of x, y atrributes to another? i'm guessing i'll need a line graphic (no problem if it has to stretch), but how do i rotate it correctly?
thanks.x

You can use VectorToAngle to get the angle between to points.

x1 = 0
y1 = 0
x2 = 50
y2 = 50

`VectorToAngle(x1 - x2,y1 - y2)` = 45

Vector to angle
And
Magnitud, to measure the distance betwen poitns, so your line will be in the Middle ( Thats his position) And Height will be Distance /2

Height WIll be = Distance.
