To split an object into an assembly of component parts:
1. If the object is not displayed, place it on the build tray by inserting its stl
file (see “Placing Objects on the Build Tray” on page 10).
The object appears—on the build tray and in the model tree pane—as a
single part. It is assigned, by default, the “primary” model material. (If
Objet Studio is configured with a secondary material, you can assign
it—or a
digital material —to the entire object. This is explained in
“Model Material Settings” on page 20.)

Note: There is no need to resize or arrange the object on the build tray at
this time.
2. With the object selected:
•
From the Object menu, select Separate into Shells .
or—
•
On the ribbon, click .
A dialog box opens in which you can specify where to save the
component
stl files. (By default, Objet Studio offers to save the new files
in a folder in the same location as the original stl file.)
