Import stl files with Openscad on mac
Hello, how can I import STL files with a Mac? import(“User:/my name/Desktop/miocubo.stl”); WARNING: Can’t open import file ‘”User:/my name/Desktop/miocubo.stl”‘. Con surface(“User:/may name/Desktop/miocubo.stl”); WARNING: Can’t open DAT file ‘/Users/paolopuggioni/Desktop/mioimport/User:/my name/Desktop/miocubo.stl’. WARNING: PolySet has degenerate polygons Thank you -- Sent from: http://forum.openscad.org/ _______________________________________________ OpenSCAD mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.openscad.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss_lists.openscad.org |
I don't know why your file name starts with "User:". I don't think that works on a Mac. Try import("/Users/paolopuggioni/Desktop/miocubo.stl”); On 29 March 2018 at 06:44, Gianpaolo <[hidden email]> wrote: Import stl files with Openscad on mac _______________________________________________ OpenSCAD mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.openscad.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss_lists.openscad.org |
I inserted the search into openscad, but it gave me error
import ( "/ Users / paolopuggioni / Desktop / miocubo.stl"); ERROR: Parser error in line 3: syntax error ERROR: Compilation failed! -- Sent from: http://forum.openscad.org/ _______________________________________________ OpenSCAD mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.openscad.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss_lists.openscad.org |
You are not showing the entire script, only a single line of the script. This line by itself does not produce a parser error. The syntax error is on line 3, so the script must have at least 3 lines.

What should I write more to have three lines?

If you’re unsure about the syntax of how to load a specific STL file into OpenSCAD, drag and drop the STL file onto the OpenSCAD program.
OpenSCAD will create a new window whose sole content is the STL import statement. You can then copy and paste that line into your own program. e.g.: import("/Users/me/Downloads/epoxy_spatula.stl”); Looking at some of the samples you’ve provided I would note that 1) There should be no colon “:” after “User” import(“User:/my name/Desktop/miocubo.stl”); should be: import(“User/myname/Desktop/miocubo.stl”); 2)It looks like you’re adding spaces in the path, where there should be none import ( "/ Users / paolopuggioni / Desktop / miocubo.stl”); should be: import ( "/Users/paolopuggioni/Desktop/miocubo.stl"); > On Mar 29, 2018, at 7:50 AM, Gianpaolo <[hidden email]> wrote: > > What should I write more to have three lines? > > > > -- > Sent from: http://forum.openscad.org/ > > _______________________________________________ > OpenSCAD mailing list > [hidden email] > http://lists.openscad.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss_lists.openscad.org _______________________________________________ OpenSCAD mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.openscad.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss_lists.openscad.org |
If it was really useful, I never thought it would be enough to transport the
file in openscad. Thanks so much -- Sent from: http://forum.openscad.org/ _______________________________________________ OpenSCAD mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.openscad.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss_lists.openscad.org |
Ok, the problem of importing files is solved, but it is not possible to see
the script of the file? Or is it possible how is it done? -- Sent from: http://forum.openscad.org/ _______________________________________________ OpenSCAD mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.openscad.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss_lists.openscad.org |
STL files are NOT scripts... they are static objects... so you can’t revise them directly
