Managing 3D Objects and Bitmaps
Geometry Management page
The Geometry Management page lets you define the geometric settings that are linked to a
3D object. To access this page, go to Format > 3D Effects > Geometry.
The Rounded edges parameter applies when you turn a 2D shape into a 3D shape. It defines
the degree of rounding of edges during conversion, as shown in Figure 23.
This parameter is particularly useful for texts that have been extruded into 3D shapes.
The Scaled depth will define the dimension ratio between the front face and the back face of
the object. By default, the scale is set to 100%, which means that both faces will have the
same dimensions. If you set the scaled depth to 50%, for example, with the cube above, you
get the object shown in Figure 24.
