Making basic 3D objects
Ulead COOL 3D lets you insert 3D geometric objects into your project with just a click of
the mouse. The fun part is when you use them with text and graphics to create unique 3D
animations and stills. You can use several 3D shapes together to create an alien object, or
just a few as props for an animated title. In this tutorial, learn how to edit a cylinder.
To insert and edit a geometric shape:
1
On the Object Toolbar, click the Insert
Geometric Object button.
If the current icon doesn’t display the
desired shape, click on the bottom right
corner to view a menu with other shapes
on it. Select the shape you want, then
click the button to insert it. The object
appears in the Edit Window.
2
On the Geometric Toolbar, enter values
to adjust the dimensions of the object.
Then, select the desired Face buttons to
edit Color and Texture attributes
individually or as a group.
3
You can now apply plug-ins to it, or use
the basic animation buttons on the
Standard Toolbar to create an animated
sequence.
Note: Bevel attributes and plug-ins cannot be
applied to geometric shapes.
