title: line type: components layout: docs parent_section: components source_code: src/components/line.js
The line component draws a line given a start coordinate and end coordinate using THREE.Line
.
The raycaster component uses the line component for its showLine
property, which is then used by the laser-controls component.
<a-entity line="start: 0, 1, 0; end: 2 0 -5; color: red" line__2="start: -2, 4, 5; end: 0 4 -3; color: green"></a-entity>
Note an entity can have multiple lines. The line mesh is set as line
or line__<ID>
in the entity's object3DMap
:
console.log(el.getObject3D('line')); console.log(el.getObject3D('line__2'));
