Importing .stl file into processing GUI using the new "ModelBuilder" library

in Contributed Library Questions • 1 year ago

Dear all,

Has anyone successfully import STL file into processing's GUI.

I have seen the examples and they were all doing exporting into STL file format.

I have come across this:

public STL(processing.core.PApplet applet,java.lang.String path)

Constructor for loading STL files. Once loaded, draw() can be used to draw the geometry on the canvas.

Parameters: filename - Name of file to open.

Thank you in advanced to anyone in sharing that:)

Regards,
hanny

You might like to try the STLReader class of toxiclibs. For an actual example, check out the one bundled in /libraries/toxiclibscore/examples/mesh/STLImportTest or check source code online here:

Btw. this reader only supports binary STL (which should be the most common one anyhow)...
