Working With Meshes
Contents
Adding a mesh to a panel
Various mesh types are supported already in Flowcode 6 with more mesh types planned for the future.
A supported mesh file can simply be dragged onto the system panel or dashboard panel and this will generate a .mesh resource file containing the object in a format that Flowcode can work with.
Currently Supported Mesh Types
The mesh type sthat are currently supported in Flowcode v6 are:
- ASCII STL File *.STL
- Binary STL *.STL
- Object File *.OBJ
