NOTE: If PARLEL is used the new line is the same length as the
existing line if the projected point falls between the existing line endpoints.
Otherwise, the end closest to the point is extended to the point.Overview | Statement List | Example
obj = LINE/point,[{PARLEL|PERPTO}],line
Creates a line thru a previously defined point which is either parallel or perpendicular to a specified line. The line is created either parallel or perpendicular to the specified curve depending upon which minor word (PARLEL or PERPTO) is used.

|
PARLEL |
Minor word that indicates that the new line is to be parallel to an existing line. |
|
PERPTO |
Minor word that indicates that the new line is to be perpendicular to an existing line. |
|
line |
An existing line to which the new line is parallel or perpendicular. |
