To demonstrate how this will work: Activate the Symbol Roll-up and choose the "An Isometric Evaluation Library (If you own Tech Drawing Tools or Isometric Tools choose "Iso Basics #40). Set the size to 2.155 inches and drag symbol 41 onto the screen. We could now use this cube to locate a point that was from the lower left corner, about 1 inch up, 1 inch to the right and 1 inch back (as shown by the green dot at the beginning a red line plot and the at the end, a blue dot). Turn on snap to objects. Snap a little green circle to the lower left corner of the corner. Draw the line and choose a red outline. Snap a little blue circle to the end of the line. | |
Delete the cube and the red line. The points (The cube and line are shown as a ghost.) are still there properly located in space although without a reference point there is no way to tell. Obviously, the cube was a quick easy way of finding a point in 3D space. Equally obvious is that this is not a real world solution. The illustration below shows the solution. With the "lofting" solution you are simply supplied an address. To replace the cube the address would be WL 1.00, BL 1.00 and STA 1.00. |
