when modifying 3d object at impress and draw using 3d object effect dialog, the preview only shows ball no matter what object i draw. this annoying as we can see the result of effect change directly.

Please add some steps to reproduce and also if possible a sample file to check.

The dialog is very old and needs a "rejuvenating cure". This ball is no preview but only a little help to understand the settings. On the 'Illumination' dialog page you can click onto the right bottom corner to toggle to a cube. More is not possible.

So this is not a bug, but a missing feature. Therefore I change the Importance field to 'enhancement'. I would prefer not a preview inside the dialog page but a true preview at the selected object.
