I have searched this forum and the Internet for this answer, and it didn’t pop up readily.
I’ve read on this forum that I can export a STl out of Blender, and it would be recognized by Luban.
I also read that Luban uses SVG files.
I downloaded Luban and tried to import a STL from Blender and also tried to import an SVG file that I had already. Luban wouldn’t recognize either file. The files were grayed out. I went to file > open file to import it. Am I doing something wrong?
The file types Luban will take depend on the operation being performed. STL files are 3D models intended for 3D printing. SVG is a 2D file format that can be used for laser cutting or CNC, but not 3D printing.
I’m just trying to open a couple of files and see how the software works. On the screengrab, you can see that I am in the 3-D printing mode, but the STL file is still grayed out. The same thing happens if I go to the CNC module; the SVG file is grayed out also.
