View.draw_lines point1, point2

Whats the problem with the following? I am unable to draw a line. I tried this:
` model=Sketchup.active_model
selection=model.selection

view=model.active_view
point1=Geom::Point3d.new(@light_fixture.transformation.origin)
point2=Geom::Point3d.new(point_here)
status=view.drawing_color="red"
status=view.draw_lines point1,point2,and this: status=view.draw_lines (@light_fixture.transformation.origin,point_here)`

This works, but I do not want a permanent line.
` model=Sketchup.active_model
entities=model.entities

entities.add_line(@light_fixture.transformation.origin,point_here)`

The view.draw... commands for temporary graphics like rubberbanding only work inside a Tool class.
If you want to 'draw' temporary 'lines' try something like cl=model.active_entities.add_cline(point,point2) to add a guide [construction] line.
I sometimes use clines within Tools too as you can't 'snap' back to a temporary ' draw' line, but you can to edges or clines...
Because you've remembered it as ' cl' you can remove it later [ cl.erase! if cl.valid?] when you've completed whatever it is you are doing [or you onCancel() or deactivate() - but again they are part of the Tool class methods!]...
