adjusting depth of 3D object in Word.

[rattales]

In Word 2007 the variable option for changing the depth of a 3D does not seem
to be on the bottom of the list like it was in Word 2003. How can I adjust
the depth of a rectangle I have put in and then given it a 3-d effect? The
same format options are not in Word like they are in PowerPoint or Excel.

When you select the rectangle there should be a contextual Drawing Tools -
Format tab magically appear on the Ribbon. There's a 3D Effects button just
right of center that provides everything you're looking for... and more

Hi Bob,

In the prior versions of Word the 3D choices included the ability to type in a specific point value for the 3-D depth in addition
to the presets in the drop down menu when you use Insert=>Shape
(wrapping has to be on of course for the shape/picture <g>)

In Word 2007, there are just the presets.
Drawing Tools=>Format=>3-D Effects=>Depth

Cindy wrote a macro, if I recall, hmmm, okay here:

to provide that variable for Word 2007.
