Which is why I asked in my OP if anyone knew if the Illustrator CS4 WOW Book contained the Chapter on Isometric systems someone in another thread said was in the CS3 WOW Book. I'm experamenting with Illustrator CS4 now but I was really hoping for info already printed that I could work with and not have to "re-invent" the wheel so to speak. Oh - and being able to measure lines as I drew them - or was that in ISODraw? I know the difference between an iso projection and an iso drawing and I vaguely remember using the scale, shear, and rotation tools alot. I know the angles required for a proper iso but can't remember exactly how I drew them. Since I started out with board, t-square, & triangle and adapted what I knew to the "new" software programes as they came out I'm really not sure I can answer your questions about the isometric protractor and the geometric principles that make iso work.
It requires Adobe Reader 9 for proper viewing. I hope I'm not violating forum rules - but you can find samples of my past work in my portfolio at Which is why I'm searching for anything that can help me "remember" how I did things. That and the fact that the software has evolved so much is really frustrating. Now I'm trying to get back into Technical Illustration and find I only vaguely recall how I drew my iso illustrations. But then I took a job in Security at Los Alamos National Lab doing what I had done in the Air Force. Up until about 8 years ago I would have considered myself an expert in Illustrator and almost expert in ISODraw.
