Property Manager.
Click the 3D bar check box to make bars appear three dimensional. The bar depth is set in the Depth field of the Map page when the Use constant values for all variables property in the Map page is active. The bar depth is set in the Depth field of the Bars page when the Use constant values for all variables property in the Map page is not checked. When constant values are not used for the bar variables, bar depths are set independently for each Variable in the Bars page.
Click the Uniform 3D side fill check box to apply a uniform fill to 3D bar sides. When Uniform 3D side fill is not checked, the sides of the bar use the same fill as the face. The bar fill is set in the Bars page for each variable independently.
