What's New in Isometrically

6.2

May 24, 2021

Fix for issue when used with stylus: movement of canvas was too sensitive. In addition to this you can now choose how sensitive canvas movement is.

Don’t waste your money

This app is terrible. I was looking for something like Hexels but for iPad. This doesn’t even come close. It has none of the tools you would expect of an app like this - no ability to edit points, no select tool to enable you to move what you have drawn. You might be able to change colours of things but the interface is SO badly designed that it’s impossible to figure out how.

The sensitivity with the pen is so bad that when you try to place a point, it quite often thinks you’re trying to move around the canvas instead. I could go on and on, but I think I’ve made my point.

The app clearly has not been tested, has not been made by someone with experience in this, and has not been released at a point where it is ready for use.

Response from developer

Apologies, there was a bug when the app is used with a stylus (very small movements should be ignored in terms of canvas). This has now been fixed and an updated release should be out, probably by the time you see this. The app is primarily designed for touch (or stylus) interaction. Unlike desktop apps it can't assume you will have a mouse, some things that make sense with that won't make sense here. Where touch (or stylus) is shines is that you can quickly select multiple points (a mouse is more precise but slower). You can select layers and shapes via the side menu; adjusting points and colours from there. You can't currently directly select shapes from the canvas, but without the precision of a mouse, I don't think that would work so well anyway. I'm afraid this isn't meant to be a Hexels for iPad/IPhone. Hexels is more of retro game art app. And is also something like 15 times more expensive. Isometrically is designed for creating (Isometric) sketches and is ideal for export to the web (with very low file sizes).

Published undeveloped?

A vector drawing application that doesn't allow to edit points?!
looks like a sketch of a good idea published undeveloped.
I think it is dishonest to make users pay for a beta...

Response from developer

Version 6.0 overhauls the interface to make some things that weren't so obvious easier (and there is new interface to edit/tweak points in existing shapes). The app is designed specifically for Isometric graphics and for use with a touch screen, so some common things for a vector graphics app make less sense. I've also added lessons on basic isometric drawing, some example drawings (to show how to use layers, opacity etc).

Easy to use but...

This app is easy to use and gives great results but I. Can’t see how you can delete an individual shape or change its colour once it has been created. Does nor show in the instructions.

Response from developer

Version 3.0 (submitted to Apple in December 2018) adds the ability to move layers, delete individual shapes and to change the colours. You can access these advanced editing options by double tapping on a layer (I've tried to keep the core editing experience very streamlined/fast). Thanks for the feedback. In previous versions you could undo/redo shapes but admittedly that wasn't much good if you had drawn many shapes and wanted to change something on bottom.
