The Vectorworks program imports Stereolithography (STL) files, which are widely used for 3D printing, prototyping, and manufacturing. Polygon mesh objects import into a Vectorworks file as mesh objects.
To import an STL file:
Select the command and then the file to import.
Alternatively, click the file to import and drag it into an open Vectorworks file.
The Import STL Options dialog box opens.
Select Import as symbol to import the file contents as a symbol definition in the Resource Manager; for more information, see Resource Manager and Concept: Vectorworks symbols.
