A better phrasing would be; "do objects appear to be drawn"

Maybe if you went here

Great idea, but does it muffle loud snoring? LOL

(Hmmmm....I don't know too many bosses or managers that would be keen on the workforce snoozing away during business hours and on the company dime. Not a Kosher idea.)

Do you have some issue with following a link to the 'instant answer' and the "101 knowledge" you obviously slept through?

If so, let me know and next time you post - I'll feel free to to ignore you.

During the weekend we relax or are drinking or are still drunk. We are also in a bad mood? Or not very serious. Australia is already over the week end. You see: it starts working.

I might have forgotten other reasons, for which I eventually ask to understand during the office time.

Okay, smartie, then what two projections are based on lines at 45°, 180°, 270°; and what projection is based on lines at 45°, 150°, 270° (and similar choices)? We can refrain for the moment from discussing manually drawn 2-point and 3-point perspective.

Don't cha just love some of these brainiacs coming into this forum looking for us to solve their homework for them? And when we refuse their query they turn around and get testy or are argumentative?

I guess that "entitlement" (and just plain laziness) is indeed alive and well with the current crop newbie generation (whatever they call themselves....Generation XYZ???).

Give me a freaking break! If you don't like it smart alec, than I suggest that you go elsewhere!

The answer is in your X-Box....... that should keep him busy.

Education can be cruel.......if you let it.

Now that's admirably cruel - and he might be able to answer half of Tornado's question if he owns "Fallout" or "SimCity"

yes, education isn't the answer.

In 1971 it was called "isometric". It's probably all changed now....

Will your isometric projection be AC or DC?

Well that's to do with the 'right hand rule' at the North Pole and of course the 'left hand rule' at the South.

It wouldn't hurt to read the rules before you jump in.

And, there are many here who are glad to give guidance, if the student is up front about it and doesn't want the aanswer just handed to them.

Welcome.

Hi dcpppf (difficult to pronounce your name, but you're welcome anyway!).

Where are you from? If and when it comes to you asking questions and they're in any way related to your location, you'll get much better answers if we know. (I'm thinking standards, climate, availability of this-and-that part or bit of equipment etc.).

Nice to know anyway - put it in your profile, please. If you don't want to let on, make somewhere up (Atlantis, or whatever) - but be sure to include any info relative to any questions you ask.

Enjoy!

Re: Projections

Echoing Lyn, it's the difference between "just give me the answer" and "help me understand".

"Homework" is the CR4 community term for former, though it's not necessarily homework, more a 'give me the fish and don't tell me how to fish for myself' attitude.

If you are a student, having a look at this student's "threads and blog entries" ref attitude/approach/conversation, and the 'contrast' in responses elicited, might clarify the difference.

A pity the OP* here didn't.

i agree whole heartedly with you regarding that young lady. i am trying to get her do her 6th semester project in a company i am associated with, hope i will get to meet and train her a bit when i go to Delhi next week.

From her CV though, she is an outstanding achiever, and i expect to see her heading some tech company before she reaches 40 !
