SUMMARY

The three-dimensional appearance is not available in Publisher when you use a monochrome VGA display.

MORE INFORMATION

===

Because of the inherent limitations of monochrome VGA displays, the three- dimensional dialog boxes display poorly on LEDs and typical laptop screens. To allow a clearer display of dialog boxes, the three-dimensional control file (CTL3D.DLL) automatically disables the three-dimensional effects normally used on Publisher dialog boxes. This is controlled by the three- dimensional display .DLL file and cannot be enabled or disabled from within Publisher.
