Usage

1. Enter ISOPLANE.
2. Choose the plane; Enter switches to the next one.

Enter isometric plane setting [Left/Top/Right] <next>:

3. The program shows the chosen plane.

Options

• Left (L): axes at 90° and 150°.
• Top (T): axes at 30° and 150°.
• Right (R): axes at 30° and 90°.

Notes

• The plane is saved in the SNAPISOPAIR variable. If isometric drafting is not on, the plane is kept for when it is turned on with the ISO button on the status bar.
