How do you set the angle of a line graphic?

All I can say for sure, based on my test before posting, is that the IDE provides a means of adjusting the angle of both line and polygon objects by arbitrary degrees

That was my original query. I do not think, for lines, LC does such a thing at all.

See posts 2 and 3 from the top above. Both Stam and EdocEvil point out the inherent silliness of my original question, at least the way I phrased it. I expanded (backpedaled?) on that right away, and played around until I got a method to do what I actually wanted, not what I actually asked.

In other words, you cannot set the angle of a line directly; there is no property with which to do so. But you can draw a new one (or change an existing one) to your exact specifications.

Yeah, I thought so too, until I tried it.

I know about the very primitive tools available to change an existing graphic, whatever style it is. This is still a far cry from being able to draw (or change) a line, starting from any point, at any length and at any angle.

Nothing I have seen so far, apart from the handler I posted, does anything even remotely, even slightly close. LC is not designed to to that. I get it, and do not blame it. It is unfair even to ask it. But I wanted to do that, so I did.
