Sketch products, buildings, elevations and urban landscapes in perspective with new 1-, 2- and 3-point perspective grids in Concepts 2021.10 for Android & Chrome OS. With our Align to Grid drawing guide, it's simple and quick to draw structures in correct perspective. 

• Open the Precision Menu and tap the Grid options, or find the grids under Settings > Grid. Tap your grid, then activate it in the Precision menu.
• Tap Edit Grid to customize your grid's line weight, color, density and opacity.
• Activate the Grid Layer to move your horizon line and set up your vanishing points - just tap+drag the horizon line and vanishing points to move them. Also angle the horizon line with the rotation control.
• Use Align to Grid to draw with the perspective guides, or use a pen at 100% smoothing to draw your own straight lines.
• Try the Allow Turns setting in the Snap menu to turn while drawing with the grid guides.
• From a previous release, remember you can now move the grid layer above your drawing or photos for easier reference with the grid.

In addition to the perspective grids, you can now customize your Samsung S-Pen Air Actions for Concepts shortcuts in your device settings. See our FAQ for how to set up your actions.
