I draw the pipe line first in fake iso and then dim it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Isometric drawing:  How do I make a dimension text style to be slanted at 30 degrees?</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/719330?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 30 Jun 2022 22:26:18 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:873f4328-eb34-4744-8adf-07029f97b4f5</guid><dc:creator>Barry Lothian</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;IIRC I&amp;rsquo;ve done that kind of thing using arbitrary placement mode however I can&amp;rsquo;t recall if you can get that exact appearance via 2D. You could get it by drawing the detail in 3D and using standard placement modes (e.g. by View).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Isometric drawing:  How do I make a dimension text style to be slanted at 30 degrees?</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/719328?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 30 Jun 2022 21:51:58 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:09382fd3-1bee-48e1-ac9a-876d9c7de92b</guid><dc:creator>Bob Rayner</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;I see there are some old fonts, ISO_FONT LEFT (30) and ISO_FONTRIGHT (31).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;But as Mary says, you can adjust the slant with any text by changing the Slant. It accepts negative values as well (it didn&amp;#39;t used to). Also if you label the stuff in true plan, when you create the iso it should iso the text as well.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Isometric drawing:  How do I make a dimension text style to be slanted at 30 degrees?</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/719325?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 30 Jun 2022 21:24:51 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:3ac140df-cd41-458e-be74-836693466801</guid><dc:creator>MaryB</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Can a 2D drawing HAVE an isometric view? Are you using the Isometric lock? Are you using active angles? I&amp;#39;m not sure what method you use to get what you are showing us.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In your text style dialog, General tab, you can turn on the checkbox for &amp;quot;Italics&amp;quot; and that allows you access to the &amp;quot;Slant&amp;quot; option. That may be part of your solution. You could then use that style for your dimensions.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Isometric drawing:  How do I make a dimension text style to be slanted at 30 degrees?</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/719303?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 30 Jun 2022 18:26:32 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:042f5c03-8c6c-418c-8488-9efa35be835e</guid><dc:creator>Abel Vlad</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;I am working in a 2D drawing, but I have tried it in 3D model but I get mixed results when I reference it in the 2d sheet view.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
