Perspective Drawing

[Charlie J]

Have any of you tried it yet? Found it useful?

 

[Gino]

I'm not sure what you're getting at ??

 

[SignManiac]

Me either?

In illustrator cs5 there is a new function called perspective drawing.

That's why I didn't get it. Corel guy here.

Haha........ Okay, now I gotcha.

Anagraph had that feature since 1988. I'm not sure but I think Gerber has also had it for a long time. Also, Illustrator has something like it for years.

Guess that's why I wasn't getting your point. It's been around for a long time. Glad you finally caught up..... ​

wow... that is an extremely powerful tool.
I'm still stuck back in the CS4 dark ages, but I would love to mess with that.


Those nay-sayers probably didn't watch the video, but I would be very surprised of there is anything comparable to the power in this offering, that has already been out there for any length of time, if at all.

I love how you draw & it's already in the perspective plane as you draw, and then you can drag, IN PERSPECTIVE, so making multiple repeats of something at varying distances, using the same vanishing point becomes as easy as copy & paste!!

First thing I've seen in CS5 to make me want it!

No they didn't.

CS4 isn't that far back in the Dark Ages. Nothing like that, but I don't want to think that I am still in the Dark Ages

What about content aware fill and puppet warp? Either one is a good reason.

I've played with it but haven't found it too useful for what I do. If I was more of an "illustrator" I think it'd be awesome.

I have used the Isometric drawing tools with the CadTools plug-in from time to time and found that very useful for construction drawings.

Whst about content aware fill and puppet warp? Either one is a good reason.

Content aware fill was the main reasons I upgraded my entire "master suite" and it was WELL worth the cost just for that ONE feature.

Looks like a neat tool that could be useful.
Think Corel's perspective tools are not even close.

Bahhh, back in MY day we didn't have no perspective tool!!! We had to do it manually uphill both ways in snow with no shoes!!!

Wow, pretty cool. Didn't know that was in there. Thanks for the vid.

autocad has had that for a long time. nice to see it in a simplified way. iam a corel guy and a draftsman, but ive never attempted to try some thing like that in corel. ill have to dig a little deeper into corel.
