Hi,

I was wondering if anyone has any experience using the deform:shear tool in layout?

I am trying to create some iso style graphics and need to shear all of my objects in layout...just cant work out the shear tool????

Cheers,

Simon

Managed to sort it thanks.

You control the deform tools in layout by creating 2 nulls and assigning one to the base and one to the handle tabs. You can then control the deformation with the 2 nulls.

Thanks anyway.

Mind you, there is an orthographic camera (LW9.x). Or just zoom in alot, and pull the camera back alot (LW8.x). You'll get the iso look when the camera is oriented at an angle.
