Automatic ISO Maker

[Don H]

Does anybody have an automatic iso-maker... (being able to take a 2D drawing and oblique it into 30 degrees left, right or top)? If it doesn't exist, I think I would have the geometric or mathematic theory behind how to do it. It would need to be able to handle something like a whole architectural bldg elevation with window details, etc.

Thanks in advance - Don

I do have something that you might be interested in. I have to draw flat foundation plans. I also need to generate an iso view of the foundations. I made a routine using ObjectARX that will generate an isometric view in 2 different viewing directions. It allows you to pick either of 2 viewing directions. Let me know if you are interested. I will share my code!

I'm not sure how detailed you want the result to be. This will not generate any actual 3D objects. It will turn the the flat foundation into a flat iso representation. The view is still in the world view top.

Follow this link to ISOTOOLS which is a program our friend Luis Esquivel wrote some time back.

You must tell us to type "ISO" after load!

Can you compile it with international command syntax?

I get: unknown command "ELLIPSE".

the correct syntax is:

(command "_ELLIPSE" "_I" ...)

Ciao.

Do not works again, you must add a "_" in all
commands AND options:

(command "_ELLIPSE" "_I" ...)

Cheers.
