Join David Rivers for an in-depth discussion in this video Creating a 3D directional map, part of Visio 2007 Essential Training.
All right, continuing on our theme of Directional Maps, we are going to zoom…into an area and create what's called a 3D Directional Map, and I say zoom in…because you wouldn't use a 3D Directional Map to create what we did in the last…lesson here on my page.…But maybe to focus in on a smaller area, you would, so people get an idea of…the buildings, and where there might be crosswalks and bridges and that kind of stuff.…So that's what we are going to do, we will have a little bit of fun with this one.…Let's go to our New button drop-down up here, we will go down to Maps and Floor…Plans and we will go to Directional Maps but this time the 3D one in US units.…
So look what we get here, we get one single stencil that contains all of our shapes.…You can see we have got some different road shapes and they have perspective to…them, since we are going to be working in 3D.…We have got some bridges and rivers, cars, trains.…We have got some trees here.…Looks like some blocks representing the different kinds of buildings we might…
