You can interact with the symbol in the Map Art dialog box with normal bounding box controls to move, scale, or rotate the object.
The 3D effect remembers each mapped surface on an object as a number. If you edit the 3D object or apply the same effect to a new object,
there may be fewer or more sides than the original. If there are fewer surfaces than the number of surfaces defined for the original mapping,
the extra artwork will be ignored.
Because a symbol’s position is relative to the center of an object surface, if the geometry of the surface changes, then the symbol will be
remapped relative to the new center of the object.
You can map artwork to objects that use the Extrude & Bevel or Revolve effect, but you can’t map artwork to objects that only use the Rotate
effect.
1. Select the 3D object.
2. In the Appearance panel, double-click the 3D Extrude & Bevel or 3D Revolve effect.
3. Click Map Art.
4. Choose the artwork to map to the selected surface from the Symbol pop-up menu.
5. To select which object surface you want to map, click the first , previous , next , and last surface arrow buttons, or enter a surface
number in the text box.
A light gray color mark appears on the surfaces that are currently visible. A dark gray color mark appears on the surfaces that are hidden by
the object’s current position. When a surface is selected in the dialog box, the selected surface is outlined in red in the document window.
6. Do any of the following:
To move the symbol, position the pointer inside the bounding box and drag; to scale, drag a side or corner handle; to rotate, drag
outside and near a bounding box handle.
To make the mapped artwork fit to the boundaries of the selected surface, click Scale To Fit.
To remove artwork from a single surface, select the surface using the Surface options, and then either choose None from the Symbol
menu or click Clear.
To remove all maps from all of the 3D object’s surfaces, click Clear All.
To shade and apply the object’s lighting to the mapped artwork, select Shade Artwork.
To show only the artwork map, not the geometry of a 3D object, select Invisible Geometry. This is useful when you want to use the 3D
mapping feature as a three-dimensional warping tool. For example, you could use this option to map text to the side of an extruded wavy
line, so that the text appears warped as if on a flag.
To preview the effect, select Preview.
7. Click OK in the Map Artwork dialog box.
Note: 3D tools are independent of Illustrator’s Perspective Grid tools. 3D objects are treated like any other art when placed in Perspective
Grid.
