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.

Example

Use the 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.

Visual Basic for Applications
Set myDocument = Worksheets(1) Set myShape = myDocument.Shapes.AddShape(msoShapeOval, _ 90, 90, 90, 40) With myShape.ThreeD .Visible = True .Depth = 50 .ExtrusionColor.RGB = RGB(255, 100, 255) ' RGB value for purple End With
Three D Format Object ThreeDFormat threedformat object
