I’m not an architect. I’m actually a jeweler and have just started Rhino. These videos have definitely made it a lot easier to transition from my old programs. Thank you.
a true axonometric i think is 45degrees and 45 degrees. so i think the script should be (only change the 30 to 45) ! _Select _Pause _SetActiveViewport Top _Rotate 0 45 _SetActiveViewport Right _Shear w0 w0,0,1 -45 _SetActiveViewport Top _Zoom _All _Extents
I am a mechanical engineer and I am doing research on additive manufacturing. I have to learn grasshopper and rhinoceros but it is very interesting to see the architectural point of view for the usage of that software. I would never expect that it could be used that way. I love your tutorials.
Nick - Thanks so much for all the lectures you've uploaded on here! I've found them all to be the best sources for learning Rhino and Grasshopper. This one in particular is a lifesaver
this script: ! _Select _Pause _SetActiveViewport Top _Rotate 0 45 _SetActiveViewport Right _Shear w0 w0,0,1 -45 _SetActiveViewport Top _Zoom _All _Extents. only partly works. everything in the plan is correct (angles, lenghts) but the heights are all wrong. something that was 15mm in my model appeared as 13.957. I tried the script multiple times in different zoom which produced different heights Does anyone know the reason for this/how to fix it? I also tried zooming to 1:1 before running the script. heights seems arbitrary and random
Hello, I tried saving down to Rhino 5 but it did not work. Then as the video tells us to have all four views open (Top. Perspective, Front, and Right) I expanded the Front view and applied the script and it ended up working. Not sure if there was a difference between saving down to Rhino 5 or Rhino 6 but it seemed to work by using only on the Front view.
Save this to a txt file as one line: ! _Select _Pause _SetActiveViewport Top _Rotate 0 30 _SetActiveViewport Right _Shear w0 w0,0,1 -45 _SetActiveViewport Top _Zoom _All _Extents
Hi Wivina, rotate your model back the opposite way (-45 degrees?) and then run the Skew command again with -45 degrees. (Whatever is the opposite of the script) I do mention in the video to save your file before your run the script, but this method should work. Good luck!
I'm Using Rhino 6 SR8 too but It's not working for me. I'm using: ! _Select _Pause _SetActiveViewport Top _Rotate 0 45 _SetActiveViewport Right _Shear w0 w0,0,1 -45 _SetActiveViewport Top _Zoom _All _Extent

I am using version 6 SR8. Haven't seen that issue. The commands all run fine. Are you using: ! _Select _Pause _SetActiveViewport Top _Rotate 0 45 _SetActiveViewport Right _Shear w0 w0,0,1 -45 _SetActiveViewport Top _Zoom _All _Extents
I just make a named viewport with the isometric command docs.mcneel.com/rhino/5/help/en-us/commands/isometric.htm Rhino 5, I used to do the shear. First thing on google.
+Matthew Hickey The isometric command looks similar, but it does not generate a traditional 45 degree axonometric. That is why this method remains useful.
This type of axonometry can also be done without code. Place the object on the vertex of the CPlane. In the top view, rotate the model by 30 ° or 60 °. In the front or side view use the Shear command and enter the value 45. In this way an axonometric view will be created from above. To create an axonometry from the bottom you have to mirror the object on a horizontal axis.

You are right, Lester. I must have pasted the wrong version of the script.

Excellent tutorial! This saved me from redrawing an entire city in studio.

These videos were so helpful! I'm taking digital tools and we began using Rhinoceros :)
Good Tutorial !
Have a nice day
Lots of thanks .. that was very useful 😍
Absolutely amazing,
Thanks so much!
This helped me tremendously, big thanks to you Professor
GREAT!! very helpfull

Great tutorial! Any chance you can share the script here?

@@nsenske, thanks for sharing! even me has understood how does it work ;)
thanks lecture, you saved my life before final
Thank you Nick!
thx for this mate
amazing tutorial! thxxx
When I do it, the hight of the building gets smaller.
I am having the same issue. 15mm on my model turned into 13.957mm
@@karl7428 samee. What did u do
Hi, is there a way to undo the script, i accidentally saved it and my model was axo forever i guess
Hi Wivina, rotate your model back the opposite way (-45 degrees?) and then run the Skew command again with -45 degrees. (Whatever is the opposite of the script)

Thanks A lot.......great video!!!!!!
is there another way to do it with more recent versoins?
-Thanks !

Thanks!!
It looks great but it doesn't work with Rhino 6 :(
Hi Albert, if you search for Axonometric Drawings in Rhino 6, you'll find my other videos with updated methods.
Great tutorial! how can one get the rhino script?

Nick Senske Thank you!
How do I save it as a txt file in one line?
seems the script cant work in rhino6 anymore
I tried it just now and I don't see any difference. It appears to work:
! _Select _Pause _SetActiveViewport Top _Rotate 0 45 _SetActiveViewport Right _Shear w0 w0,0,1 -45 _SetActiveViewport Top _Zoom _All _Extents
I am using version 6 SR8.
Just tried in Rhino 6 and no luck so far :/
Im having the same problem too. Unknown command: _extents
I am using version 6 SR8. Haven't seen that issue. The commands all run fine. Are you using:
! _Select _Pause _SetActiveViewport Top _Rotate 0 45 _SetActiveViewport Right _Shear w0 w0,0,1 -45 _SetActiveViewport Top _Zoom _All _Extents
Thomas Dissaux you need to type MacroEditor first then paste the script
RH6 issue, script works fine with RH5. Didn't work with RH 6 SR14
you're a fcking genius thanks
does anyone have a command for a military axon?
I need ittt. Did u find it?
I just make a named viewport with the isometric command docs.mcneel.com/rhino/5/help/en-us/commands/isometric.htm Rhino 5, I used to do the shear. First thing on google.
+Matthew Hickey The isometric command looks similar, but it does not generate a traditional 45 degree axonometric. That is why this method remains useful.
You would think they'd have it customizable, because obliques always make the critics smile. Oblique section perspective for the win.
In 3dsmax is possible?
This type of axonometry can also be done without code. Place the object on the vertex of the CPlane. In the top view, rotate the model by 30 ° or 60 °. In the front or side view use the Shear command and enter the value 45. In this way an axonometric view will be created from above. To create an axonometry from the bottom you have to mirror the object on a horizontal axis.
how I can return this?
! _Select _Pause _SetActiveViewport Top _Rotate 0 45 _SetActiveViewport Right _Shear w0 w0,0,1 -45 _SetActiveViewport Top _Zoom _All _Extents.
how do i reverse this code?
You can revert to an older version of your document if you forgot to take a copy.
