To adjust 3D scene settings:

  1. Select a 3D chart, click Inspector in the toolbar, click the Chart inspector button, and then click Chart.

  2. To change the chart’s viewing angle, drag an arrowhead in the blue arrow button until you’ve situated the chart the way you want.

  4. To change the depth of the chart elements, drag the Chart Depth slider.
