File and parallel 3D file protection area element

You can specify the dimensions and position as well as values for the display and collision
monitoring of a sphere-shaped protection area element in the "Sphere" window.
The file used here contains a grid of triangular areas in the STL format, with which you can
display bodies with complicated shapes.
Note
Coordinate origin
The coordinate origin of the file does not have to match the coordinate system of the
machine.
You align the coordinate system using offsets and rotations.
