hello. i don't know if this is specifically simplify3d, but, at some point in the past i had associated .factory files with simplify3d and the thing i'm finding is, if i keep STL files (which are already associated with S3D) in the same folder as .factory files, the windows 10 "Type" colum...

i think i have resolved the issue. i simply exported the FFF profiles i wanted to keep, then close S3D, re-opened, imported those FFF profiles and now i no longer am getting messages and further, it's saving the changes i make to the profiles when i say yes i want to save them.

it appears choosing this profile gives me the error. but i also notice now that the "default" profile has "modified" after it. hm.

and to clarify what i'm doing here, i'm simply selecting the drop-down list and selecting different profiles. thx.

i should also have to say that, when something is "sticking out" is modeled in multiple sub-objects this option does a great job at boolean joining them.

i wanted to print a white house that i found on thingiverse. it was going well until it started printing the columns on the front and back. as it got about half way up the columns, they appeared twisted and crazy. i was printing at 50mms and as i watched it print the columns it looked like the layer...

hello. i have a bird feeder that has 3 parts to it, 3 meshes. they were all exported from my 3d program as 1 stl file. i bring into s3d, separate connected surfaces. is it now possible to print just 1 of the 3 parts? i un-check 2 of the parts and they disappear. but when i center and arrange, all 3 ...
