i exported a blender file into an stl file, however the stl file won't open in the 3d viewer/builder/3d paint

Hello, I'm Felipe and I'm an independent Community Expert, and I'll do my best to help you.

It sounds like the STL file you exported from Blender may have some issues or errors that are causing it to crash in the 3D viewer/builder/3D paint software. Here are a few things you can try:

Check the STL file in a different software: Try opening the STL file in a different 3D software, such as MeshLab, to see if the file is actually corrupted or has errors. If it does, you can try to repair it using MeshLab's repair functions.

Check the export settings in Blender: Make sure that you have selected the correct options when exporting the STL file from Blender. Specifically, check that you have selected the correct unit system (e.g., millimeters, centimeters, etc.) and that the "Scale" value is set to 1.0.

Simplify the model: If the STL file is too complex, it may be causing the 3D software to crash. Try simplifying the model by reducing the number of polygons or simplifying the geometry. You can also try to reduce the file size by lowering the resolution of the model or using compression software.

Contact the software support team: If none of the above solutions work, you can try contacting the support team of the 3D software you are using. They may be able to help you identify the issue and suggest a solution.

Thanks for your post in Microsoft Community.



It sounds like you are currently having problem that 3D Viewer don't show opacity. Sorry for the inconvenience.



Does this problem appear suddenly or is it always there? Is it a display issue for individual files or does it have this issue with any file?
