                            (*) necessary when the default owner is not set

                            (**) if pnt1 lies on selected element

Options

• :GO :OK is necessary for setting the owner of the geometry.
• :OWNER specifies the owner of the geometry using the AM_GEO_SET_DOMAIN subaction.

Specify the element to be perpendicular to and then the end point of the new line. Alternatively, specify the existing element, specify a begin point on the element for the perpendicular line, and then specify the end point.
