I understand what you are seeking....

Inkscape is not a 3D application.

What you have are flat, non-dimensional, objects. i.e. just 3 rectangles with sides at various angles, that's all. You can pull the rectangles apart and see that there's absolutely no 3D projections taking place. Similar to what can be created in any 2D vector application.

Any apparent dimensioning due to the isometric angles is just appearance, not real dimensional projections. As far as I'm aware, Inkscape doesn't create real 3D projections, including isometric projections. You need a 3D application for that.

If you wish to change the view angle, you must redraw at the angle you want.

Inkscape, like all 2D applications, understands X and Y on flat, perpendicular planes... meaning...

Inkscape has no clue what Z is.

In short, you are seeking 3D functionality in a non-3D application.


I'm not an Inkscape user, so there is some off-chance that there's some 3D feature within Inkscape which has been added, since the last time I had it installed years ago, which I've never heard of and I'm incorrect.
