edge query to map

  You need to evaluate the query to make it into an array of queries with one edge each, then loop over the array and evLine each one. Here's an example.

      // Gets the edges of the selected face
      const edgesOfFace = qLoopEdges(definition.face);
      
      // Makes the one big query into an array of individual queries for just one edge each
      const edgesAsArray = evaluateQuery(context, edgesOfFace);
      
      // make an empty array to collect the lines from the loop
      var linesArray = [];
      
      // iterate over each edge
      for (var edge in edgesAsArray)
      {
          try
          {
              // evLine on only one entity
              const edgeLine = evLine(context, {
                      "edge" : edge
              });
              
              // Display the line and print it's contents to the FS notices panel
              debug(context, edgeLine, DebugColor.RED);
              
              // add this line to the array, so we have them all together once the loop is done.
              linesArray = append(linesArray, edgeLine);
          }
          // if the edge isn't a straight line, evLine fails and we run the catch statement.
          catch (error)
          {
              reportFeatureInfo(context, id, "Non-line edges ignored.");
          }
      }
