Isometric drawing is a method of making 3D drawings using 2D coordinates. So in this article we are going to make a Isometric Drawing In AutoCAD, which has been made using x and y coordinates only but it looks like it’s a 3D drawing. So we will make this drawing with the Isometric command in AutoCAD 2020.

AutoCAD is a well known software now. And it is not just about 2D drawings only. We can actually make our 3D drawings in AutoCAD using the 2D commands only so this is what we are going to learn about in this article.

To turn  Isometric ON, click on this isometric draft button on this status toggle.

You can also use command to turn on isometric. For that Press DS and Enter. A window will pop-up, from that select snap and grid tab and make sure Isometric snap radio button is checked. Click OK to exit drafting settings window.

When we will turn it on its corresponding grid setting changes.

To see the grid setting, click on the grid mode and turn it ON.

When we will click on this arrow which is just beside this iso-draft, we will see these 3 options. We have Isoplane Right, Isoplane Left and Isoplane Top.
