Convert to 3-D

Converts the selected object to a three-dimensional (3-D) object.

To access this command...

Choose Shape - Convert - To 3-D (LibreOffice Draw only)

Open the context menu of a selected object and choose Convert - To 3-D


The selected object is first converted to a contour, and then to a 3-D object.

If you select two or more objects and convert them to 3-D, the result is a 3-D group that acts as a single object. You can edit the individual objects in the group by choosing . Choose when you are finished.

Note Icon

Converting a group of objects to 3-D does not change the stacking order of the individual objects.


Tip Icon

Press F3 to quickly enter a group and Ctrl+F3 to leave the group.


You can also convert bitmap images and vector graphics, including clipart, to 3-D objects. LibreOffice treats bitmaps as rectangles and vector graphics as a group of polygons when converting to 3-D.

Even drawing objects that contain text can be converted.

If you want, you can also apply a 3-D Effect to the converted object.
