Putting element several times relitive to an anchor

[skoove]

Hello! I am wanting to put some thing relitive to objects that have the same name, one for each object, but I am not sure how to do that.

This is what I have at the moment:

#cetz.canvas({
  import cetz.draw: *
  let support(coords) = { polygon(coords, 3, angle: 90deg, radius: 0.3) }

  let joint(coords, name: "joint") = circle(
    coords,
    radius: 0.1,
    fill: black,
    name: name,
  )

  for i in range(0, 7) {
    if i == 0 {
      joint((), name: "first-joint")
    } else {
      joint(())
    }
    line((), (rel: (2, 0)))
  }

  joint((), name: "last_joint")

  circle("joint")
})

which renders as:

I could put it in the for loop, that is what I did before, but doing it based on the anchors/object would be far more convenient, and just wanted to check if it was possible or not, thanks!

I don't get what you want to place relative to each other, but you can use (rel: (offset here), to: (origin)) for coordinates relative to another.

should have been more clear, pretty much just want to place a circle on everything with the joint label, i did find for-each-label but have not yet had a chance to play with it
