Isometric Text?

[Richard S.]

Hi, does anyone know of any tutorials on how to convert a normal typed word, into slanted isometric text?

Any pointers appreciated. Thank you all in advance.

Affinity App?

You can use the grid: View > Show Grid and View > Grid and Axis Manager - it has isometric grid presets. You can also the isometric panel View > Studio > Isometric to arrange the text to an isometric plane.

Sorry - Affinity Photo I was talking about.

I was just wondering if it was possible to quickly type some text, then slant it isometrically.

Designer has the Isometric Panel, which makes working with Planes very straight forward…

But Photo doesn't have this feature, so you would have to do it manually using the correct SSR (scale, shear, rotate) values in the Transform Panel.

I guess you could record 3 macros - 1 for each plane?

Or pick up a copy of Designer (currently 50% off!) because being able to use the whole tool set directly on the Isometric grid is kinda cool

It’s for Illustrator but you can use similar functions in the Affinity applications to do the same things.
