2 Preferences
About preferences
Preferences control default behaviors in the application. Once preferences are saved, they are retained and used
each time you start the application. The Preferences dialog box has two tabs: General and Command Center
connection.
General
The General tab provides settings for controlling the application.
● Global settings
– Language: Select the desired language for the application and restart the application.
– Units: Select the desired units of measurement: millimeters, centimeters, or inches.
– Reset all messages and warnings: If not enabled, enable this setting to display the messages again.
● Parts
– On add/duplicate parts, auto-pack: Select the default behavior for how you want imported or
duplicated parts to be managed in the viewport.
○ 2D: Automatically arranges all parts horizontally on the bed in the build volume. If there is no
room, parts are placed outside the build volume in the viewport.
○ 3D: Automatically arranges all parts horizontally and vertically within the build volume. If there is
no room, parts are placed outside the build volume in the viewport.
○ None: Keeps the part arrangement as saved in the imported design le. This option can cause
part collisions, including complete overlaps.
○ Ask every time: When parts are imported or duplicated, you are prompted to select an auto-
packing option.
– Auto-pack tolerance: Adjust part spacing precision. Lowering the tolerance increases accuracy but
decreases performance. The default value is 5 mm and the minimum value is 1 mm.
– Show warning for out of bounds: Select whether you want out-of-bounds warnings to be shown.
– Remind to check minimum wall thickness: When enabled, after clicking Send to print, you are
prompted to check parts for wall thickness issues before the job is actually sent.
IMPORTANT: If a wall thickness error is detected, each area of a part that has an insuicient wall
thickness for the selected printer is colored red. The application cannot x parts with wall thickness
errors. You can only remove them from the build volume. Wall thickness errors do not prevent you
from printing.
– Wall thickness surface coverage: Denes the allowable tolerance for each part’s wall thickness that
can be thinner than the printer-dened capability without invoking a warning. For example, by default
ENWW About preferences 7
the surface coverage value is set at 5%. If less than 5% of a part is too thin to print, a warning will not
be shown. If more than 5% of a part is too thin to print, a warning will be shown
– Separate 3MF components on import: Choose to bring in as a single part or multiple parts to interact
with in the build volume.
● File locations
– Path to save temporary les needed to send a print job: Select the location to save temporary les
created while sending the job to the printer.
– Path to save reports: Select the location to save reports.
TIP: To access that location, choose File > Reports.
The application creates two dierent reports, part reports and job reports, to help you track issues
with parts and to document the printing process. Reports are PDF les. The report names are based
on the job name entered in the job settings tab.
NOTE: Changing the job name also changes the name of the le.
The report names also include a date and time stamp, indicating exactly when the report le was
generated. When you need to share reports, print or email the PDF les.

1. Open the Open dialog box using one of these methods:
● On the action bar, click Add parts.
● Click File > Add parts.
● Press Ctrl+I.
2. Select the part les that you want to add.
3. Click Open. The parts are added, shown in the viewport, and listed in the part browser panel.
NOTE: Depending on the preferences you have chosen, added parts may be auto-packed for you.
TIP: If you make a mistake, choose Edit > Undo (Ctrl+Z), Edit > Redo (Ctrl+Shift+Z), or just start again.
Choose File > New (Ctrl+N) to discard all changes.
4. If necessary, size the parts to t in the build volume using one of these methods:
● Click Scale to t so that parts will automatically be sized to t, and click OK.
● Select the unit used to design the part originally, and click OK.
To ll the build volume
If you want to include as many of the same part as possible in the build volume, to make the most of the print
job, add one part and click Edit > Fill build volume.
IMPORTANT: You must have only one part selected.
Automatic part arrangement
You can have the application automatically pack the parts within the build volume for you at any time. If parts are
outside the build volume (shown as yellow), using Auto-pack arranges as many parts as possible horizontally
and vertically within the build volume for the most eicient printing of the job. The approximate part spacing is
added to the minimum spacing value required by the selected printer, creating the total space between parts. A
zero value means the parts will be printed as closely together as possible. If not all the parts will t, they are
aligned in the viewport outside the build volume. If all parts t, the adjusting the spacing value may enable you to
t more parts into the build volume.
10 Chapter 3 Adding parts ENWW
1. On the action card, click Auto-pack.
2. You have the opportunity to modify the Approximate part spacing.
3. Click Auto-pack.
Automatic part and build checking
IMPORTANT: Use the color view toolbar to switch to geometry view to see the errors in the viewport.
When parts are added, the application automatically checks that the parts satisfy various conditions:
● In bounds: Are the parts positioned within the build volume so that they can be printed?
● Closed: Do the parts have holes?
● Correctly oriented: Are the parts positioned so they can be printed properly?
● Topologically valid: Are the parts printable?
Parts beyond the boundaries of the build volume are considered out of bounds. Out-of-bounds parts can usually
be xed by clicking Auto-pack, or by manually moving the out-of-bounds part into the build volume. Parts
with holes, troublesome orientations, and topologically invalid parts can usually be xed by clicking .
IMPORTANT: Until these issues have been addressed, you will be prevented from printing.
The application uses colors to indicate the status of parts:
● Gray: The part is unselected. No issues detected.
● Blue: The part is either being pointed at with the mouse or is selected. No issues detected.
● Red: The part either has a repairable issue such as a hole (autox) or an unrepairable issue (needs to be
xed in some other application or removed from the build volume). If a part is not repaired, printing is
prevented. Red can also indicate areas of a part that have insuicient wall thickness for the selected printer.
When sending to a printer, a warning is issued, but printing is not prevented.
● Yellow: The part is not within the boundaries of the build volume (out of bounds), which prevents printing.
Optionally, the application can analyze parts for thin walls that may cause issues when printed. Acceptable wall
thickness depends on the type of printer (see the printer’s user guide). To check for wall thickness issues, click
in the parts panel. If you do not check parts for wall thickness issues before you click Send to print, you will be
reminded to do so then.
IMPORTANT: If a wall thickness error is detected, each area of the part that has an insuicient wall thickness for
the selected printer is colored red. The application cannot x parts with wall thickness errors. You can only
remove them from the build volume. Wall thickness errors do not prevent you from printing.
ENWW Automatic part and build checking 11
About part reports
Part reports can be run at any time for selected parts. When no parts are selected, the report includes all parts in
the viewport. Once created, a part report begins with a section listing parts with issues. If no parts have issues,
the sort order set in the parts panel determines how parts are listed in the part report. For each part in the
report, the part name, thumbnail image, and dimensions are provided. If a part has no errors, next to each part
are some blank lines you can use to take notes. If there are errors, the error type is identied.
All reports are PDF les stored in the location dened in Preferences. You can browse to that location to review a
report at any time.
