--- Comment #2 from Regina Henschel <[email protected]> ---
The dialog which you get when using "Toggle extrusion" is a simplified subset
of what is possible in 3D-Scenes.

I agree, that the "3D effects" dialog can be improved. The "Favorites"
drop-down should not be in section "Material" but outside, because selecting a
predefined Favorite does not only change "Material" but "Specular" too. And we
could add some more Favorites or exchange existing ones with more popular ones.

A "wire frame" is not a "Material" but a "Shading" mode. Possible values of the
shading mode are "draft" (=wire frame), "flat", "phong" and "gourand" in ODF.
But "draft" is not implemented for 3D-Scenes. Instead you can set a line style
other than "none" and set the area fill to "none". The dialog from "Toggle
extrusion" has no choice between "phong", "gourand" and "flat", although the
rendering engine would support it.

3D-Scenes and extruded custom-shapes are total different object types. However,
they use the same rendering engine. I would not set as goal to make the dialogs
equal, but each of both dialogs could be improved. And we need to consider 3D
charts in addition.
