perspective projection offers a more realistic scene in which objects in the distance appear smaller than objects of the
same size in the foreground.

Show Toolbar

Displays the 3D toolbar along with the image. When this option is not selected, you can right-click the

3D image to view the 3D toolbar.

Script

Specifies the JavaScript file that runs if a 3D model is enabled. Click Browse to add a JavaScript file to the PDF.

Launch Settings

Enable When

Specifies when the 3D model is activated. When the 3D model is enabled, you can interact with it by

using the 3D navigation tools, for example.

Disable When

Determines how the 3D model can be deactivated. When a 3D model is disabled, the 2D preview image

or poster appears in the canvas.

Playback Style

Enables you to display the 3D model in a floating window outside the page. If you select Play Content

In Floating Window, you can select the size of the window (in pixels) from the Height and Width menus.

Border Width

Select to create a border around the 3D object.

Transparent Background

Removes any background color.

Resources

Use the Resources tab to add files developed in Flash® to a 3D model for animation, effects, and textures. To bind a
Flash resource, select it from the list of resources, and then select a binding type (Foreground, Background, or
Material). To bind a material, also enter the material name for the part or parts where you want to display the material.

Add

Use to add SWF files for animations and backgrounds for the 3D model.

Add Directory

Select to add a directory of resource files to the 3D object.

Remove

Select a file in the list, and then click Remove to delete it from the file.

Name

Displays the name of the file that is selected from the list. You can also rename a resource, which is useful with

scripting. For example, you can replace the name with the one used in a script.

Binding

When adding files that are developed in Flash as a resource for a 3D model, binding determines how those

files interact. For example, you can identify a resource to run in the background and one to run in the foreground.
After you add the files to the file list, select one, and in the Binding section, select either Background, Foreground, or
Material.

Material

3D designers can use the Material field to define a material to use in a model. The material name can be

associated with a resource by selecting Material in the Binding section.

FlashVars

Flash developers can use the FlashVars field to add ActionScript™ variables for the selected file.
