Automate sperate objects and batch export as .PLY/.STL

Post by ninh_ghoster »

Hi all,

I have .PLY/.STL files which contains multiple objects (there are spaces between them). Is there a way to separate them automatically and batch export all of them into individual files (.PLY)?

Thanks in advance.

There's a way for point clouds (with Connected Components extraction). But sadly not with meshes... It wouldn't be too hard to derive a function that works on meshes as well, but sadly you'll need some C++ skills to do it...

I think you should also consider for future updates hability to save all the selected files into an specific format like .last and the file name be the object name in the tree.
