Projection—selects one of three mathematical algorithms used to give a
3D appearance on a 2D sheet of paper or computer screen. You can choose
the following values:
— Oblique: The chart has depth but the X-Y plane does not change when
the chart is rotated or elevated.
— Orthogonal: Perspective is not applied to the chart, resulting in less of
a 3D effect. The advantage of using this type of projection is that
vertical lines remain vertical, making some charts easier to read.
— Perspective: This provides the most realistic 3D appearance. Objects
farther away from you converge toward a vanishing point.
●
Viewing Distance—a number from 50 through 1000 that represents the
distance from which the chart is viewed as a percentage of the depth of the
chart.
●
Width to Height—a number from 5 through 2000 that represents the
percentage of the chart’s height that is used to draw the chart’s width.
●
Depth to Height—a number from 5 through 2000 that represents the
percentage of the chart’s height that is used to draw the chart’s depth.
See “Rotating a 3D Chart” on page 7-46 for an easy way to change the elevation
and rotation of a chart using the mouse.
