Public Interface ThreeDFormat
'Usage
Dim instance As ThreeDFormat

Remarks

You cannot apply three-dimensional formatting to some kinds of shapes, such as beveled shapes or multiple-disjoint paths. Most of the properties and methods of the ThreeDFormat object for such a shape will fail.

Examples

Use the ThreeD property to return a ThreeDFormat object. The following example adds an oval to myDocument and then specifies that the oval be extruded to a depth of 50 points and that the extrusion be purple.

Set myDocument = ActivePresentation.Slides(1)

Set myShape = myDocument.Shapes _

    .AddShape(msoShapeOval, 90, 90, 90, 40)

With myShape.ThreeD

    .Visible = True

    .Depth = 50

    'RGB value for purple

    .ExtrusionColor.RGB = RGB(255, 100, 255)

End With
