STLImport |
This command imports geometric data from ASCII and Binary STL files into
AutoCAD.
To Import a STL file
1. Select Import from the STLImport menu or type
STLImport at the AutoCAD command prompt and press Enter.
2. The
AutoCAD File Open dialog box is displayed. Browse for the STL file you
wish to import and click Open.

3. The STL Import for
AutoCAD Options dialog box is displayed. Set the options as desired
and click OK.

Note: An AutoCAD polyface mesh cannot contain more than 32,767
vertices and/or faces. If you select to import the STL model as a
polyface mesh and if it exceeds this limit then STL Import for
AutoCAD will import the model as a set of 3D faces. This is a
limitation of AutoCAD and not of STL Import for AutoCAD.
