Below you will find a step-by-step process to build a **3D Banner** unit.

***\* Note -** See [this article](https://help.adventive.com/en/knowledge/banner-format) for information on building a standard Banner unit.*

1. Provide a *unique* **Name** for the unit, and select **3D Banner** from the **Format** dropdown.
2. Define your initial ad dimensions (or select one of Adventive's pre-populated options).
3. Backup Image (Optional) and Click URL (Optional) may be left blank at this time, click **Submit.**

### **Configuring the Canvas**

The builder will now load the main 3D Banner canvas based on the dimensions inputted in step #2.  You may now place your ad content and creatives.

The 3D Banner format supports multi-screens for additional interactivity.  Learn how to add additional screens in [this article](https://help.adventive.com/en/knowledge/screens-layers) and how to control navigation between screens in [this article](https://help.adventive.com/en/knowledge/action-go-to-screen).

### **How to Configure the 3D Banner General Ad Properties**

Modifications can easily be made to the general ad configuration using the General Ad Properties panel on the right-hand side of the builder window.  See [this article](https://help.adventive.com/en/knowledge/general-ad-properties) for instructions on configuring the General Ad Properties. 

 

#### How to Configure the 3D Banner Settings

These settings can be found in the bottom right corner of the builder:

| **3D Banner Settings** |   |
| --- | --- |
| Show Shadow on Hover | When selected, a shadow will appear beneath the unit on hover. Deselect to remove the shadow. |
| Show Tilt on Hover | When selected, the assets within the unit will tilt outside of the boundaries of the ad. Deselect to contain the assets within the ad boundaries. |

 

**Tips for Configuring the 3D Banner Canvas**

- Use images that are*transparent PNGs.*
- Make sure the images (especially background images) are larger than the dimensions of the ad - when the ad tilts/users hover over it, more of the images will be exposed on all sides.
- Order of layers will determine how 3D effect displays. The bottom layer will be the background, and top layers will be 3D. See our [Screens & Layers](https://help.adventive.com/en/knowledge/screens-layers) article for more information on organizing layers within your ad unit.
