To split an object into an assembly of component parts:
1. If the object is not displayed, place it on the build tray by inserting its stl
file (see Placing Objects on the Build Tray on page 10).
The object appearson the build tray and in the model tree paneas a
single part. It is assigned, by default, the primary model material. (If
Objet Studio is configured with a secondary material, you can assign
itor a digital materialto the entire object. This is explained in
Model Material Settings on page 20.)

Note: There is no need to resize or arrange the object on the build tray at
this time.
2. With the object selected:
From the Object menu, select
Separate into Shells
.
or
On the ribbon, click .
A dialog box opens in which you can specify where to save the
component stl files. (By default, Objet Studio offers to save the new files
in a folder in the same location as the original stl file.)
