Change the position to front and then go to “map art”. Select 3D and then choose “revolve”.Ī revolve panel will appear. Now select the semi-circle which is inside the artboard and go to effects. Make a copy of semi-circle and place it outside the artboard. Now remove half of the circle to create a semi-circle. To create 3D look use the “ellipse tool” to make a circle in any color.

Once the symbol is created, delete the squares from the artboard. Then drag to the symbol panel to create a new symbol. Select all the squares and rotate the object to 45 degrees.
