Visio piping isometric drawings

Visimation custom Tripp Lite isometric assembly technique We need to trick these shapes into showing the devices inside of the enclosure. Since Visio is a 2D system, it has no way of knowing that an object is physically contained by another object in 3D space. I previously discussed 1D glue for mounting devices in racks, for example, and we’ll revisit that here as we place devices into the enclosed racks in a simulated 3D isometric view. In a future article I’ll cover the differences in behavior of the various types of Visio connection points for 1D and 2D glue that can ease the process of assembling a set of parts. These stencils are available for free download from. In a similar style, we created a custom set of scaled isometric shapes for Tripp Lite products including equipment racks, enclosures, power strips, and power distribution units. The illustration has no scale… the objects are samples from Visio and Visimation stencils drawn in isometric simply to show a variety.
