perpective views in drawings

martin_streat

Hi is it possible to make the isometric view on a drawing sheet into a perspective view?

3dcad

I don't think it's possible and thinking the history & use of drawings I wouldn't expect such improvement anytime soon.

You didn't mention why you need such drawing but there is workaround, in modeling space select 'hidden edges removed' from small view cube:


You can then take a screenshot and insert that image into drawing - a bit hassle and image needs to be manually updated if model changes but for occassional use it does the job.

What would also be nice to have is to be able to export a DXF from that perspective view directly from the 3D environment. The DXF result would be just a flat view but means that it would be vector lines and not an image. This is useful when importing DXF into Illustrator for writing up technical  manuals for example.
