Why don't I have this? I'm seeing it used in a lynda.com training video on Illustrator CC...

That's an Advanced illustrator option

Goto Window > Toolbars > Advanced (set it to Advance mode)

Now you can see line segment tool on the left of your work space

Right click on Line Segment Tool

and

Choose Rectangular Grid Tool

Have a happy Isomeric Illustration

Well, First of all there is no "Toolbars" nor "advanced" menu anywhere in "Windows". I could only change some by choosing different Workspace profiles like "essentials", "painting" etc... Tried them all but no mater what right clic on any tools did NOTHING... So no grid tool for me I guess. Time to go play with Affinity me thinks...

And please show screenshots.

Hi Jacob,

Thanks, yes, in the meanwhile, I did find it in the flyout behind the line tool. I'd been looking for it under the shape tool. So, problem solved. And thanks again for your prompt (and correct) response.
