• CUBE
• 2Point
• 3Point
• EQUAL

Match the misconception with its correction.

(a)   - To create 3D boxes, use the 'box' command, not the 'rectangle' command.

(b)   - Ensure your view is set to "realistic" to visualize boxes in 3D.

• How can I create 3D boxes instead of 2D?
• Why do my boxes only show as line frames
