In that case, you must manually update AxoTools by selecting “Load CADtools settings” again from the Projection panel’s flyout menu. If you change the scale or axonometric settings in CADtools, AxoTools will not be alerted and so cannot automatically import the new settings. The first time you do this, it may take a few seconds to make the connection from one plugin to another, but subsequent calls to CADtools will happen very quickly. Next select “Load CADtools settings” from the flyout menu in AxoTools’ Projection panel. To import CADtools’ scale or axonometric settings as set in its CADaxonometric panel, first ensure that you have CADtools installed and have checked the AxoTools preference to use CADtools axonometric view. The preferences dialog can be called by double-clicking any of the AxoTools tools or in the menus at Illustrator > Preferences > Graffix Plugins > AxoTools… (Mac) or Edit > Preferences > Graffix Plugins > AxoTools… (Windows).ĬADtools offers an extensive array of options for formatting values, but in AxoTools you’ll have to choose from the presets in the Scale units menu in the Preferences dialog. To enable this, first select one or both of the CADtools options in AxoTools’ Preferences dialog.
