New Member TomDowd Posted May 13, 2021 New Member Report Share Posted May 13, 2021 Hello! Can someone point me at a resource for importing an OBJ file into 3DC Printing for setting up as an STL? When I import the file it comes in flat and I can't find anything that tells me how to give it depth. Assistance appreciated! TomD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New Member TomDowd Posted May 13, 2021 Author New Member Report Share Posted May 13, 2021 Thanks - that does export an STL file. To solve my problem I had to manually scale using the universal gizmo prior to completing the import. I don't know which axis it technically is since there doesn't seem to be a manual (numerical input) scale control. Now to figure out the rest of it... Thanks!

Carlosan Posted May 13, 2021 Report Share Posted May 13, 2021 Try importing another model to know if the issue come from 3DC or internal mesh topology. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
