Drawing
Last updated 10/3/2014
Note: The Flare tool is not supported with Perspective Grid.
When you draw an object in perspective, use Smart Guides to align the object to other objects. The alignment is based
on the perspective geometry of objects. Guides appear as the object approaches the edge or anchor point of other
objects.
You can use numerical values for any of the rectangle or line group tools (other than the Flare tool). You can specify
height and width values for the object in the same way as you would draw in regular mode, but the object is drawn in
perspective in this case. Also, the values represent real world dimensions of the objects.
Note: While drawing in perspective, you can use the regular shortcuts available for drawing objects such as Shift / Alt+drag
(Windows) or Option+drag (Mac OS).
While drawing in perspective, objects can be snapped to grid lines of the active plane. An object snaps to the grid lines
within 1/4th distance of the cell size.
You can enable or disable the Snap to Grid option from View > Perspective Grid > Snap to Grid.This option is enabled
by default.

Attach objects to perspective
If you have already created objects, Illustrator provides the option to attach objects to an active plane on the perspective
grid.
To add an object to the left, right, or horizontal grid:
1 Select the active plane on which you want to place the object. You can select the active plane using 1, 2, or 3 keyboard
shortcut command or by clicking on one of the faces of the cube in the Perspective Grid Widget.
2 Click Object > Perspective > Attach to Active Plane.
Note: Using the Attach to Active Plane command does not affect the appearance of the object.
For a video on mapping artwork to perspective, see www.adobe.com/go/lrvid5212_ai_en.
Release objects with perspective
If you want to release an object with a perspective view, click Object > Perspective> Release with Perspective option.
The selected object is released from the associated perspective plane and is available as a normal artwork.
Note: Using the Release with Perspective command does not affect the appearance of the object.
Bringing objects in perspective
When you bring an existing object or artwork into perspective, the appearance and scale of the selected object changes.
To bring regular objects into perspective, do the following:
1 Select the object using the Perspective Selection tool.
2 Select the active plane on which you want to place the object by using the Plane Switching widget or using the
keyboard shortcut 1 (left plane), 2 (horizontal plane), 3 (right plane).
3 Drag-and-drop the object at the required location.
