Hi Ralf,

This is very useful, thanks for sharing your scripts!

Before this, I did it all manually with the help of Reconstruct Curve, 3point Circle and other MoI tools. Now it's a lot easier :)

Hello,

How to make this STL import to work?

- I put both files in commands folder - it didn't work,
then
- I put the _STLimport.js file in scripts folder, it didn't work either
then I removed above file from the script folder and in Shortcuts window changed the shortcut name for _STLimport.
And it worked but after picking the STL file the error message appears, as the attached.

Any chance to fix it?

Hi mk, there are 2 different kinds of STL files, there is a text file version and a binary version. I think the STL import plugin only supports the text version type so make sure you have that kind of STL and not a binary one.

Note that in general it's not very workable to import STL geometry into MoI because STL files only contain faceted triangle mesh data while MoI is designed to work with CAD surfaces and solids and isn't a polygon modeler.
