Chris Wailes Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 Hello everyone, I apologize if this has already been asked. I have downloaded an STL file from Thingverse and I want to be able to edit the file and manipulate it. Is there a procedure to do this in VW? Do I need to convert the file to something first?

Benson Shaw Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 Try this: Open a new vwx file. In the File menu, click Import. Near the bottom are import file type choices including STL. Select this option and navigate to the STL file and accept/open. This should bring the STL geometry into your new file as vwx geometry (probably a mesh). Not sure if it will be easily editable, but at least it's a start. If needed, you can export the resulting vwx geometry as an STL file. HTH -B Quote Link to comment
