Hello,
Yes a am very new to the software I regret to say… ☹
I have switched on those three toggles as you suggested, but then you said to go to add? Add what exactly? The other problem with the globe is if you use grid, and apply sphere to it the grid is see thru. I have tried making a grid in Illustrator and importing it with a topographic map as its background and applied the sphere to that, it sorts the transparent globe problem, but the shading of the sphere is still an issue. Sorry if these questions are really dumb.
Thanks again for the response.
John
