Currently the line tool in telestrator is a free-form line.

1) I'd like the ability to draw a traditional straight line between two points. Much like the square or circle drawing tools, I should click to set one end and then drag to set the end point.
2) I'd like the ability to measure an angle by providing three points. The first point is the beginning of a straight line, the second point is the end of the line (which completes Side 1) and the beginning of the angle to be measured. The third point is the end of the Side 2 line.

Here's an example from a mobile app with these capabilities:

That's a very specific request, I might be wrong, but I'm not sure it would be useful to a large number of users.

The second part with measured angles certain is. However, the primary request is drawing a straight line from two points which I think would be a pretty basic feature of a telestrator.

Indeed, it wasn't clear; I had the angles in mind. ;)

The straight lines feature would be great for streaming billiards as well. I would not mind the angles for the overhead view but I'd like to be able to toggle it off and on as the angles wouldn't make sense on some camera shots where the table is skewed
