Post From: Problem with Ray and Parallel Ray on Log Scale

No, I do not think you understand. The basic issue is you can not draw a ray on a log scaled chart. When you do, the first anchor is placed correctly, and the second anchor and line no longer coincide while placing the second anchor. This is just wrong, as I am giving you the two points the line goes thru. As an example, if you draw a "line" instead the two anchors and resulting line are correct. If you then extend that line it draws the line incorrectly.

I understand the doc in terms of straight line vs curve on log etc. However, the basic premise of line drawing tools is you provide the anchors and the lines go thru the those anchors. If I switch from log to linear scale, the line will move, but the anchors will NOT.

In its current form, sc extended line/ray drawings are not usable on a log scale.
