130 Effects
The Studio’s Styles tab is a good place to begin experimenting with 3D
filter effects. Its multiple categories each offer a gallery full of predefined
effects, using various settings.
You’ll see a variety of
remarkable 3D
surface (Glass,
Metallic, Wood, etc.)
and texture presets
in the Instant Effects
and Textures
categories,
respectively. Click
any thumbnail to
apply it to the
selected object.
Assuming the object
has some colour on
it to start with, you’ll
see an instant result!
Alternatively, you can customize a preset, or apply one or more specific
effects from scratch, by choosing
Filter Effects from the Drawing
toolbar. If you want to keep the effect for future, you can save it.
To apply 3D Effects:
1. With an object selected, choose
Filter Effects from the Drawing
toolbar.
2. Check 3D Effects in the Filter Effects dialog.
3. Adjust the "master control" sliders here to vary the overall
properties of any individual 3D effects you select.
