What is the best approach for making a three-dimensional object in Corel that will allow me to address the various components of the object for assigning different materials. Example: I am trying to create a sign made up of brick columns, arched top and sign area for exporting to Adobe Illustrator format. I tried creating an object in AutoCAD, brought it into Corel, exported to *.AI and then loaded it into Simply3D as a 3D object. However, this approach ended up only rendering the line work that makes up the columns but not the columns themselves. Any suggestions?
