Oblique Projection Questions

• Oblique drawings are dimensioned in a similar fashion as these types of drawings:
• In a CAD system, you can draw an ellipse by specifying these:
• When the receding lines are true length, and the projectors are at 45 degrees to the plane of projection, the oblique drawing is called this:
• Oblique sections are useful to show this:
• In oblique projection, important shapes should be in this position relative to the viewing plane:
• In an oblique drawing, equally spaced partial circles may be used to show this:
• If you are sketching an ellipse in an oblique drawing, you can block in the enclosing rectangle and sketch the ellipse tangent to its sides.
• In general, all types of sections for isometric drawing may be applied to oblique drawing.
• If a complicated pictorial is needed, it may be easier and more accurate to create a 3D model than an oblique drawing.
• In an oblique drawing, when an angle is specified in degrees in a receding plane, you should convert the angle into circular measurements.
• In oblique projections, one of the object's principal faces is parallel to the plane of projection.
• When the receding lines are drawn to half size, the drawing is known as a cabinet projection.
• In CAD, oblique drawings are difficult to create because you cannot use snap increments or draw similarly to drawing on grid paper.
• In oblique projections, the projectors are perpendicular to each other but are not parallel to the plane of projection.
• Circles, circular arcs, and other curved surfaces may be drawn using offset measurements.
