Publoo Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 Hello. I proposed a new mesh functionality with a perspective setting. For now, I created such a net by hand: Designia_Perspective_Grid.afassets Regards example: SrPx, Burny, firstdefence and 6 others 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emmrecs01 Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 Hi. Many thanks for these, very useful! Just one comment: although they can be easily added to the AD Assets panel, they are effectively invisible, i.e. they cannot be seen in the panel. Hovering the mouse over where one would expect each one to be creates a blue square (but no visible indication of which actual grid is chosen). Asset panel ("default" view): And when mouse hovers: Or am I missing something obvious? Very likely.

All nets were on a 100x100mm scale so they were not visible in the resource docker window. I reduced it to 10x10 mm. It's ok now. I also added two new grids: Designia_Perspective_Grid.afassets regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RNKLN Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Quite useful. Thanks for sharing. Note: it looks like one of them needs to be renamed into Descending Grid 5x5 (which can be done by right-clicking and selecting Rename Asset...).

Thanks, I got it to work as advertised, but I'd like to keep my artwork on top of the grids and still be able to snap like it does when I'm in the grid's group. I'd like to know the setup for this, please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evtonic3 Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 Windows users must have a different reaction to what is explained, I can't get it to work on a mac following the last post's direction. Thanks anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
