Inventor isometric views are NOT to scale
(OP)
I was just recently informed that the isometrics that inventor inserts into it's drawings are not to scale. A quick measurement confirmed this to be so. Is there a way to ensure they come in at their proper scale?

Inventor 2009 allows you to put on the true dimensions or the projected dimensions.

Isometric views are not projections of the true image because the sides are supposed to be equal length.
I would like to attain true isometric views from inventor not representations.

So if your base view scale is 1/2 (or .5) then make your isometric view scale .6125 (.5 x 1.225)

"in which the three coordinate axes appear equally foreshortened "
A di-metric projection keeps one axis with no foreshortening, and may be what you are looking for?
