English term or phrase: plumb line
مذكورة في تعليمات تركيب لوحة جدارية

لا نستطيع أن نقول خط عمودي حيث أنها مذكورة قبلها أو ما رأيكم؟

إليكم النص:

Since the placement of the first panel determines the overall look of the finished mural, take extra time and care to place it accurately. To mark the position of the first panel, draw vertical lines on the wall using a pencil, a level and a plumb line.
