: Can shapes be made to continue across grid planes in Illustrator's perspective tool? I made a logo sketch that I decided to make inside the Illustrator perspective tool. This logo has shapes

As far as I'm aware an object can only be associated with one plane. A workaround is to split the object in to two halves and attach each to the correct plane.

A Workaround & Example

Created a clipping mask over half the object you want to wrap around two planes - up to where the object will wrap around to the next plane. Duplicate the object and edit the clipping make so the opposite half is visible through the mask.



Use the Perspective Selection Tool (SHIFT + V) To attach the object to the correct plane and place it where you want.

Make the opposite plane active using the active plane widget, then repeat the process of attaching and placing on the perspective grid for the other half of the object.



You can move the objects vertically along the perspective grid as you need with no problem.



If you need to move the object along the horizontal axis (i.e. change where the object wraps around the planes of perspective grid) you will need to alter the clipping mask. This is difficult while the objects are still on the perspective grid so you may want to repeat the process of clipping the halves and re-attaching the objects to the perspective grid - or roughly edit the masks until the position is finalised, then repeat the process.
