Point.attr()

The Point.attr() method adds an attribute to the point, and returns the original point. Setting the third parameter to true will replace the value of the attribute instead of adding it.

Signature

Point point.attr(
  string name,
  mixed value,
  bool overwrite = false
)

If the third parameter is set to true it will call this.attributes.set() instead, thereby overwriting the value of the attribute.

This method is chainable as it returns the Point object

Example

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

points.anchor = new Point(100, 25) .attr('data-text', 'FreeSewing') .attr('data-text', 'rocks')

// Avoid the text getting cropped paths.hidden = new Path() .move(points.anchor) .line(points.anchor.shift(0, 80)) .addClass('hidden')

return part }

</Example>

## Notes

See [Using Attributes](/howtos/code/attributes)
for information about custom Attributes that can be used with Points.
