In the Object > Path > Perspective submenu, choose 1 Side or 2
Sides.

Control handles appear at the corners of the bounding box of
the selected object. Drag any of the handles to apply the perspective
effect. As you drag a handle, guide lines indicate the position of the
vanishing point, which extend beyond the current view.
If you choose 1 Side, the side of the objects bounding box
where you drag a handle will slant to a vanishing point. You
can adjust the objects sides independently.
If you choose 2 Sides, as you drag a handle, the opposite
sides of the objects bounding box will slant equally toward
a vanishing point located along the objects vertical or hori-
zontal center axis.
When the pointer is on a control handle, a four-arrow sym-
bol indicates that you can drag horizontally or vertically. To
change directions, point to a control handle until the four-
arrow symbol appears again.

When you finish, press Esc to deselect the object.
Using the Vanishing Point command
The Vanishing Point command applies a perspective effect to one or
more vector objects. The command slants the bounding boxes of
selected vector objects so the objects appear in perspective based on a
vanishing point that you select.
The Vanishing Point command is available when vector objects or
groups of vector objects are selected. The command is not available
if a paint or text object is selected.
