Thanks Phil, good find.

Now another question, and I can post it in another thread if you think that best.

But does Autodesk have any plans to include plugins that would allow you to import .stl meshes as SOLID editable objects?

I saw mention of AutodeskInventor2013MeshEnabler....but apparently it does not work with 2014.

I don't mean to be the bearer of bad tidings, but Solidworks, at least in older offerings, did allow that. At one point I had to bring .stls into SW as solid, and then export them into a file IP could read because I much prefer IP as my working CAD program.

Let me check with some developers on that. Also, there is an Autodesk website called Autodesk Labs which often previews new technology or functionality that eventually finds it way into the product.

Thanks for the instruction......I got the Tslot in and can now use it in the Frame Generator....this will save a lot of time.....and I love the miter function.

DocDavies,

With reference to the mesh enabler, here is what I have found.

There IS a 2014 version, that is the good news.

Currently it is only available to subscription customers. Here is the link.

I am trying to find out if 2015 will have it included, or if we can get the 2014 version.

Phil,

Like most poor mentors, I don't have a subscription so my attempts to download the plug in failed.

If you find any more about it please let me know.

We've got a good system set up to 3D scan our parts with the Kinect we all got in the kit a few years ago. It would be great to be able to bring them in, edit them, and then print.

Thanks again,
Doc

I have come close to getting access with a few contacts, but we all end up at the Subscription page.

I do have a couple of other "resources" to tap into. Still trying.....
