CSG it takes only to compile the model (hit F5 key).Īn example of exporting of 3D model into a graphic PNG file is shown on the picture below: DXF formats a model must be compiled and visualized before exporting by pressing F6. CSG formats, and export into image format. The program OpenSCAD allows to export 3D models into. Use menu "View" to select a point of view and move model to the screen center. Use mouse to rotate the model (hold left mouse button pressed) or move it (hold right mouse button). It shows the progress indicator if compiling and visualization are in progress.Īfter the file is open, it can be compiled. The status bar is located at the very bottom of the window. The main window of OpenSCAD program consists of three fields: the text editor field at left, the graphic field at top right, and the console output area at the bottom right that shows messages. stl file is to use drag and drop method - just drag a file from Windows Explorer and drop in on the OpenSCAD program.

stl files in the current directory, select a file and open it. Enter file mask *.stl in the Open File dialog as it shown in the screenshot below: stl file using this program? Select File -> Open from the main menu, or press CTRL+O hotkeys.

CONVERT STL TO OPENSCAD FREE
stl file format is free OpenSCAD (Solid 3D CAD Modeller), it can be downloaded from this site: (there are Windows/Mac OS X/Linux/BSD versions). stl files can be edited with a text editor. stl extension are stored 3D model of objects, they can be "printed" using 3D printer.

stl file and the program OpenSCADĪbbreviation STL stand for STereo Lithography (Stereolithography is a technology for 3D printed objects creation).
