Create a struct that represents your line:

Use Draw Line (not Lines) to draw lines one by one by stepping through that array.

It’s not about structs. It’s about Draw Line vs Draw Lines nodes.

Draw Line draws from A----B

You can call this many times and draw lines with their own unique AB coords.

Draw Lines draws a line from A----B----C----D and so on…

Point C is shared between the 2nd(BC) and the 3rd(CD) line. This node continues drawing using the previous point as a starting point for the next line.

:))) I trust you for sure , but I couldn’t figure out why using Struct makes a difference. I don’t understand the logic behind it.

many many thanks .

Draw Lines makes sense if you want to draw a (closed) shape. You could probably do something along the lines of:

But it seems counterproductive at a glance. Although, I’m pretty sure there a niche where this could be utilised - depending on the format of the piped in data.
