Output Dimensions
As part of the 3D printing process, selected 3D solids and watertight meshes
within a bounding box are saved as an STL file. This file can be used by a 3D
printing service to output a physical model.
You can select blocks or external references (xrefs) that contain 3D solids and
watertight meshes. However, only 3D solids and watertight meshes within
selected blocks or xrefs are included in the STL file. Other objects are not
included when you save the STL file.
You can modify the dimensions of the bounding box and specify the scale of
3D solids and watertight meshes within the bounding box. If you modify this
option, the proportions of these objects are unaffected.
You can modify the following options. All of these options are based on one
another. If you modify one, the others are automatically adjusted.
