The Edit Symbol option is also available in the Control panel and under the Object > Perspective menu. In addition,
you can edit a symbol in isolation mode or by double-clicking the object.
Depending on whether you are editing a symbol or text, the options in the Control panel change to Edit Symbol or
Edit Text.
A symbol instance in perspective is the same as an expanded symbol instance. You can edit a symbol definition just as
you would edit the symbol definition of a flat symbol instance. However, a symbol definition cannot contain art types
that are not supported in perspective such as raster (images), non-native art, envelope, legacy type, and gradient mesh.
Note: Functionalities such as replacing a symbol, breaking link when expanding the a symbol instance, and reset
transformation do not work on symbols in perspective.
As a workaround to replacing a symbol instance, you can Alt+drag (Windows) or Option+drag (Mac OS) a symbol
instance in perspective and leave it over the symbol in the Symbols panel. However, make a copy of the symbol before
replacing the symbol instance because when you drag the symbol instance, the previous symbol instance is
permanently deleted from your document.
You can edit or modify text in the same way as is done in the normal mode. For more information, see Creating text.
Perspective Grid settings
You can configure the Perspective Grid settings using View > Perspective Grid. The options available include:
Show Rulers This option shows the ruler division only along the true height line. The gridline every determines the
ruler division.
Snap to Grid This option allows snapping to gridlines while bringing in perspective, moving, scaling, and drawing in
perspective.
Lock Grid This option restricts the grid movement and other grid editing using the Perspective Grid tool. Only the
visibility and the plane position can be changed.
Lock Station Point When the Lock Station Point option is selected, moving one vanishing point moves the other
vanishing point in sync with the movement. If not checked, then the movement is independent and the station point
also moves.
About Perspective Grid
To view the default two-point perspective grid in a document, you can do any of the following:
Click View > Perspective Grid > Show Grid.
Press Ctrl+Shift+I (on Windows) or Cmd+Shift+I (on Mac) to show the Perspective Grid. The same keyboard
shortcut can be used to hide the visible grid.
Click the Perspective Grid tool from the Tools panel.
