Well, you can certainly set a "size" for the symbol,
but this probably doesn't give you what you are looking
for, as the period symbol is not a "filled" symbol. I think
you need some kind of polygon to get a 3D effect, anyway.
Maybe you could render a pyramid shape or something faster.

Cheers,

David
