Note: When you de-select objects, they are displayed, by default, with colors
representing the model-material. Even after adding a coating to an object, its
color remains that of the main material, not the color of the coating material.
To inspect, modify or remove the coating applied to an object:
1. On the "Model Toolbar" or the Model Settings ribbon, click
2. Perform one of the following actions—
Positioning Objects on the Build Tray
To produce models efficiently and with the required finish, it is important to
carefully position objects on the tray. Objet Studio supports the automatic
positioning of objects. However, you should check to make sure that the
objects are orientated optimally for your needs, according to the
considerations explained in "Manual Positioning" on page 5-33.
Two things that affect the positioning of objects on the tray are orientation
and placement. You can let Objet Studio determine the optimum orientation
and position, or you can control them.
By default, Objet Studio automatically orients objects, when placed on the
Automatic
build tray, for the shortest printing time. (You can later change the
Orientation
orientation manually.) However, you can cancel automatic orientation when
placing an object on the build tray.
To place an object on the build tray without automatic orientation:
➢ In the Insert dialog box, make sure Orient Automatically is not selected.
