Extrusion options
You can also display extrusion options by clicking this button in the
options toolbar.
The extrude is the depth of the sides - the more extrude, the deeper the object. An object with a high
level of extrude will have a very large 3D effect. You can change the extrude by clicking and dragging on
the side of the text or board/border.
For quick, interactive extrusion on your design just hover
your cursor over the side of your text or board/border so
that your cursor changes to the extrusion tool (see right).
You can then just click and drag the extrusion of the
object.
These extrusion options offer greater control over extrusion.
Apply to:
If you are using a board, board + holes or border design then you can choose whether to apply these
extrusion settings to just the text, the board/border or both.
Depth:
Controls the size (depth) of the sides.
Outline:
Creates a hollow graphic. The difference between outline and turning off the front/back face is that
outlined graphics have thick sides and the bevel appears on both inside and outside edges of the side.
Turning off display of the faces creates wafer-thin sides and the bevel appears on only the outer edge.
Matt/Gloss:
Lets you give the graphic either a non-reflective or shiny surface.
Front face (
Dimmed for buttons): Selecting this makes the face of the graphic transparent so you see inside the sides.
For shallow angles (text almost face-on) you can see through to the back of the graphic.
Back face: Similar to Front face
but makes the back of the graphic transparent.
All options in this dialog box are available in Flash vector format.
