– Depth – enter the extrusion depth for the selected 3D object. This option is not available
for 2D rotation objects converted to 3D using the To 3D Rotation Object tool. Figure
176 shows an example of a 2D circle converted to a 3D cylinder with the extrusion
depth increased to 3 cm.

• Segments – changes the number of segments that Draw uses to draw a 3D rotation
object. The higher the number of segments, the smoother the object surface will be.
However, a high segment number may increase the time it takes to generate the 3D object
on your display. Figure 177 shows the difference on a 3D sphere when the segments have
been increased from 10 to 30 segments horizontally and vertically.
– Horizontal – enter the number of horizontal segments to use in the selected 3D rotation
object.
– Vertical – enter the number of vertical segments to use in the selected 3D rotation
object.
