First produce both objects independently of each
other. The subsequent combination is made easier
if you use parallel projection and rotate the objects
into an upright, straight position.
Click on the sphere and use Edit > Copy to take
over the scene and put the sphere on the clipboard.
If you are sure that you do not need the original
anymore you can use Edit > Cut. In any case move
the sphere a little to the side.
Click now on the cone. The status bar will show 3D
Scene selected. Right-click and enter the group.
You will see that, as usual, elements that do not
belong to the group are less bright.
Use Edit > Paste. Now the objects (not the whole
scene) from the clipboard are pasted into this
scene.
The original position of the sphere now contains a
new sphere that belongs to the scene. This new
sphere can be dragged over to the cone. Exit the
group after moving the sphere.
Notice that combining 3D objects results in them
being more or less “fused” together – there is no
stacking or layering as with 2D objects.
Adjust the position of the objects as you wish. You
cannot arrange objects in front or behind others, as
with 2D objects, but can only move them parallel to
the drawing plane.
