The Isodraft command supersedes the Isoplane command. While I’m a total enthusiast for 3D solid modeling, I do have to admit that it makes sense to use isometric drawing when all you need is some simple isometric views for design concepts, presentations, catalogs, illustrations, and assembly instructions. With the addition of the new ISODRAFT command in AutoCAD and LT 2015, creating 2D isometric drawings became a whole lot easier and faster. If you have experience in macro, you can create your own command in CUI or even create an AutoLISP program.I've never had a guest writer on my blog - but one of my favorite coworkers - Dieter Schlaepfer , who is a Principal Learning Content Developer for Autodesk, and an excellent writer - kindly volunteered! Dieter is an enthusiastic fan of the Isodraft command, so here is his take on this awesome new addition to AutoCAD 2015.ĢD Isometric Drawing in AutoCAD 2015 by Dieter Schlaepfer I know it’s not fun to do those steps, but it’s the only way if you use vanilla AutoCAD. ![]() We will cover this on the next tutorial: how you can create isometric dimension arrow. Now if you examine the drawing carefully, the dimension arrows don’t look right. Once again, depends where your dimension is.Įnter type of dimension editing : OĮnter obliquing angle (press ENTER for none): -30 One of the style use 30 deg text style, and the other one use -30deg.Īctivate DIMEDIT, choose OBLIQUE, then give 30 or -30 as oblique angle. What about dimensions? You also have to create two styles. Well, basically these three are all you need. Try to create it with several style and text angle combination. ![]() Now place your text (single or multi line), change the rotation to 30 deg or -30 deg. Use oblique angle 30 deg for one style and -30 deg for the other. But a little workaround could achieve what you want. If you use vanilla AutoCAD, there is no direct or easy way to do it. ![]() So how can you create isometric annotations? ![]() The drawing looks isometric, but not the annotations. But have you tried to annotate your isometric drawings? How about dimensions and text, is it appear properly? No, it’s not. But changing your cursor orientation will make it easier to draw isometric drawings. Previously, I wrote about isometric drawing in AutoCAD. ![]()
