Creating 3D views

[Anonymous]

I have got my plan, front elevation and end elevation drawn in AutoSketch and have opened them in Auto Cad. Does anyone know who to somehow put these drawings together to create a 3d view?

To create an actual 3D drawing, you'll first need to get at least the
full AutoCAD 2002 application. I'm presuming you've got AutoCAD LT 2002
since you posted to this group. AutoCAD LT is only a 2D application
though several very creative users who frequent these discussion groups
may be able to guide you creating what gives the appearance of a 3D
drawing. Doing that with LT is far beyond my own meager talents, I'm
afraid.

Sorry 'bout that, I said "2002" when I meant "2000". The version is
irrelevant, the answer's the same. For true 3D you need the full
AutoCAD application as LT has always been 2D only.

If you are just setting up views, look up MVIEW and VPORTS commands in HELP.
Also look up, in HELP in AutoCAD/LT, Working in Three Dimensions>Changing 3D
Viewpoints for more ideas.

F1 button on your keyboard if you are not familiar with HELP in AutoCAD and
AutoCAD LT.

Jeff,

I strongly doubt there is a function even in full AutoCAD to create a
3D model from views 😉
