Note: You can open several stl files at once, to place several models on the

build tray. If you select multiple stl files that make up an assembly,

you can select all or some of the parts. To print the entire model,

select all of an assembly’s component stl files, and select the

Assembly check box.This positions the parts as a complete,

integrated model instead of as independent parts. The effects of

selecting the Assembly check box—in both the model tree and the

build tray display—are shown in the following figures.
