Not a big problem!

Create an imaginary TL. Heres how.
A Draw a line from one point that is:
1. parallel to the RP
2. intersecting another line

Project the newly created point to the

B other view.
In this example, in FV, X lies between
A B and C. Therefore it should be the
case in the TV.

Now its time for TS!

You can only measure the TRUE SIZE

from the view that shows TRUE
SHAPE!

B EV is a prerequisite of TS.
