[dba-Tech] 3-d style and 3-d rotation in Office 2007 and 2010

Susan,

Does this not work the same as in Office 95 though 2003 (I don't have Office 2007)? 

You draw an object and then click the 3-d tool. The object then takes on a 3rd dimensions, but if you have not defined any depth it does not look any different. So you click on the 3-d tool again and a graphical menu appear, at the bottom of which is the textual choice "3-D Settings". Select that an you get another toolbar which has a depth button.

Subject: [dba-Tech] 3-d style and 3-d rotation in Office 2007 and 2010

I'm playing around with the above features and mine shapes and pictures just don't look like the gallery examples. They still look flat. Has anyone else played with this? I've seen it used, but I have no idea why my objects still look so flat. 

I've tried it on the Shapes (AutoShapes) and on an inserted picture of the ribbon. I used the latter because I've seen that effect used already. The rotation works Okay, but there's no depth. 

Any help? 
Susan H.
