Hi Folks,
Many of my jeweler CAD friends have recommended that I buy 3DC, yet I haven't. Now I find that a reduced capability option (3DC-Printing) has been created, with the tools most jewelers would use to prepare their files for printing.
I've just purchased it. But it appears one of the features from 3DC that's missing is importing while keeping the Rhino file's layer structure.
Here's the export screen from my Rhino file:
Here's the full version 3DC import screen. Note the option to "merge to separate volumes"
Here's the import screen off my 3DC-Printing. The "Merge to separate volumes" is not available.
Am I doing something wrong? Is there a way to keep separate layers when I import these obj files? I suppose I can import each layer separately, but it would be convenient not to have to. Oh, the reason this is important to me is so that I can perform booleans with the separate layers
