Add more options for defining the line, arc and spiral segments, especially in terms of cartesian coordinates and angles.
Something like this, depending on segment type:

  • X Position [Relative/Absolute]
  • Y Position [Relative/Absolute]
  • Angle [Relative/Absolute]
  • Length [Relative/Absolute]
  • Curvature [Relative/Absolute]

Determining the segment from these constraints requires (numerically) solving systems of eqations and might not always lead to a valid solution (for example, it's not possible to define an arbitrary x coordinate for the endpoint for a vertical line). So errors have to be dealt with in a way that is transparent to users. (Idea: Show error message as red text at the top or bottom of the plot)
