Cell.to_stl

Cell.to_stl(filepath, precision=None, binary=False, **kwargs)

Write a mesh to an STL file.

Parameters

  • filepath (str) – The path to the file.

  • precision (str, optional) – Rounding precision for the vertex coordinates. Defaults to the value of compas.PRECISION.

  • binary (bool, optional) – If True, the file will be written in binary format. ASCII otherwise.

Returns

None

Notes

STL files only support triangle faces. It is the user’s responsibility to convert all faces of a mesh to triangles. For example, with compas.datastructures.mesh_quads_to_triangles().
