Great info everyone, thank you!

Where can I get the nodeditor script and how does one install it?

Thank you!

>>Isolate these objects by right-clicking on Edit > Hide so they are the only visible objects:

I NEVER made a right click on Hide button to isolate... but this does the trick - i get nacked edges

Thanks a lot!

>It really is a shame to work with data like that though - an STL file like would likely be coming from a CAD program and it's so much better to load in the original CAD data using STEP format for example.
YES i agree but in the 3D printing scene often you have only a STL file to work with..

And now i have to right click all the buttons in MoI and see what happens... ;-)

The nodeeditor stl import node is one of Karstens extensions you will find it in import.js
Just add it to a nodescene and connect it to a output...

Hi Ralf,

re:

Well also for the Hide button doing a Ctrl+click does a "Show subset" operation where it will temporarily show the current hidden objects, let you pick one or more of those and then go back to hiding everything other than what you just picked.

A right click on Copy or Paste will do CopyClipboardWithOrigin and PastePart instead of regular copy/paste, that's where you go right into orienting the pasted in part.

A right click on the Save button does "Save As".

A right click on View > Cplane will reset the cplane back to world default.

A right click on the style line in the properties panel when an object is selected will let you edit the style rather than bring up the menu.

And right click inside of a viewport is a shortcut for pushing the "Done" button or will repeat the last command if not in a command.
