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
inserts the parts as a complete, integrated model instead of as independent
parts. To see the effects of selecting the Assembly check box—in both the
hierarchy pane and the build tray display—see the following figures.
