Example

```js ({ Point, points, macro, part }) => {

points.A = new Point(90, 40) .setText("Point A", "right text-sm") points.B = points.A.shift(155, 70) .setText("Point B is point A shifted 7cm\nat a 155 degree angle", "text-sm") .attr("data-text-lineheight", 6)

macro("ld", { from: points.B, to: points.A, d: -10 })
