[CMD]DVIEW[/CMD]

The POints sub option is part of the DVIEW command. Depending on the language version of AutoCAD, the command may need to be called with a "." prefix. If need be try:

.DVIEW

Seant, I have open your EXCEL file and set it to the 2 other schemmes but I don't know where to copy/paste the 2 angles as I don't fint the sub option POints.

I just took a look at the 2 other drawings and.......

Maybe it's possible to draw them easily with a "simple" 2D projection between 2 views because the other angles are equals..............

Also so sorry Seant, I just didn't see your post.

Now I have the EXCEL file and I will use it to elaborate the 2 other drawings with the other angles so that I will be abble to get the X,Y,Z dimensions of the cube that I'm not abble to draw in those non isometric points of view.

A link to the Excel spreadsheet is in the 4th post on page 2 (my first post in this thread). Are you not able to download and/or open that file?

Dery, on my files the text color is green as you can see on the thumbnails, try and change your screen color if green.

The basis of the studies is the very first 3 schemes and I have done a study based on a 3D cube in the model space and then try to open viewports in the layout space to "look like" the 3 schemes.

I have "almost" suceeded but with a very poor precision, and Kent COOPER did an other "2D only" study on how to draw the ellipses inside the shapes.

Then SEANT gave us the good "point of view" to apply to the viewport ( scheme 1 ) so I did that and did a FLATSHOT to have the cube with the 2 correct angles 10 degree and 40 degree as the basis was the 2D drawing.

At this time "we" have the first schemme OK and only SEANT can give us the good viewport settings for the 2 others but as it's based on an EXCEL file difficult to send "we" don't have the 2 others.

Hope this will help, if not tell us.

It's alright. Now I can open them using my AutoCAD 2014.

However, there is still one problem, the text is missing.

As I can see of these CAD/BIM Blocks you uploaded, this is not a step-by-step instruction, I don't understand.

Can you please upload another CAD/BIM Blocks with a step-by-step instructions?

Thank you.
