title: Point.shiftTowards()
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
The `Point.shiftTowards()` method returns a new `Point` that is shifted
|
|
`distance` (mm) in the direction of the `target`.
|
|
|
|
## Signature
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
Point point.shiftTowards(Point target, float distance)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Example
|
|
|
|
<Example caption="An example of the Point.shiftTowards() method">
|
|
```js
|
|
({ Point, points, Path, paths, macro, part }) => {
|
|
|
|
points.A = new Point(90, 70).setText("Point A", "right text-sm")
|
|
points.B = new Point(10, 10).setText("Point B", "text-sm")
|
|
points.C = points.A.shiftTowards(points.B, 35)
|
|
.setText("Point C is point A shifted 3.5 cm\nin the direction of point B", "center, text-sm")
|
|
.attr("data-text-lineheight", 6)
|
|
|
|
paths.direction = new Path()
|
|
.move(points.A)
|
|
.line(points.B)
|
|
.addClass("note dashed")
|
|
|
|
macro("ld", {
|
|
from: points.C,
|
|
to: points.A,
|
|
d: -10
|
|
})
|
|
|
|
return part
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
</Example>
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Notes
|
|
|
|
If you need to move a point a percentage instead of a specific distance, use
|
|
[`Point.shiftFractionTowards()`](/reference/api/point/shiftfractiontowards/)
|
|
instead.
