❒ Units—Millimeters or inches for the object's units of measure.
The 3D file contains the object's proportions, but not its units of measure.
Therefore, make sure to correctly select either millimeters or inches
when inserting an object. Otherwise, the size of the object on the build
tray will be either much too large or much too small. To change the
measurement units of objects already placed on the tray, see
"Measurement Units" on page 5-36.
❒ Number of copies—How many copies of this object to place on the build
tray.
❒ Orient Automatically—Automatically orient objects on the build tray for
efficient model building.
❒ Assembly—Mark this check box if you selected multiple stl files that are
part of an assembly.
Note: The Extents values displayed in the Coordinates section of the Insert
dialog box, represent the maximum dimensions of the object on each axis.
These dimensions correspond to the virtual "bounding box" surrounding the
object see Figure 5-51 on page 5-45).
Objet Studio places the object on the build tray, and in the model tree.
