I bought Framed Perspective in anticipation of this course and read ahead. when i got to this part i agonized over it for 2 or 3 days before i understood it. I even asked people for help, its apparently a rare topic though, because nobody had a clue what i was blabbering on about. I am once again grateful for the geniuses that figured this all out so that dummies like me can pick it up in less than a week.
LESSON NOTES
What's in Premium?
In this lesson, I show you the most famous technique for measuring back into space. You will learn how to measure repeating units all the way to the horizon when you lack a back line. I explain how to find the center of your first unit and use a diagonal line to find the exact placement of the next corner. This method works for any proportion, wide or narrow angles, and on floors or walls. You can even use it to measure units coming toward you. This gives you a reliable tool to accurately draw repeating patterns in perspective without guessing.

Repeating measurements in perspective is tricky when they must diminish.
You can measure back into space using one diagonal line. A diagonal drawn from a front corner through the distant center of your first unit perfectly scales divisions to the horizon.

@Randy Pontillo There is one thing i cannot get my head around. I have been going back and forth through Loomis' Successful drawing and where to place the trace for the measuring line just alludes me, in a 2 point perspective he just says it should be placed on the horizon near the vertical scale on the backside of the object you want to project measurements on. But for me that description seems to be too vague as it does seem to matter where the measuring point is placed. Does this make sense am I on the same track? I think its coming up but is something I've seen done and I'm itching to get at it. :)
yeah sameee! I bought framed perspective, and sometimes i get so confused. "fig whatever - connect line A-B to line C" like especially with reading probably because of my adhd. learning through a video format feels like cheating tbh
