expression A variable that represents a ThreeDFormat object.

Return value

To change the direction of the extrusion's sweep path without rotating the front face of the extrusion, use the SetExtrusionDirection method.

Example

This example adds three identical extruded ovals to myDocument and sets their rotation around the x-axis to - 30, 0, and 30 degrees, respectively.

Set myDocument = ActivePresentation.Slides(1)

With myDocument.Shapes

    With .AddShape(msoShapeOval, 30, 60, 50, 25).ThreeD

        .Visible = True

        .RotationX = -30

    End With

    With .AddShape(msoShapeOval, 90, 60, 50, 25).ThreeD

        .Visible = True

        .RotationX = 0

    End With

    With .AddShape(msoShapeOval, 150, 60, 50, 25).ThreeD

        .Visible = True

        .RotationX = 30

    End With
