The impressively complicated composition of the work is highlighted by the spiralling twist of the dolphin's tail around the child's body, oh which only the legs in the highest part remain free.
The group represents Eros as a winged child, positioned upside down as he rides a dolphin from whose mouth would have spouted water.
The work was created in the 2nd Century AD adn was used as an ornamental motif on a fountain. (To check your model’s default units, select Window > Model Info and, in the Model Info window, click Units in the sidebar on the left.) You can change the units in the exported STL file to meters, centimeters, millimeters, feet, or inches.This sculpture, from the Farnese Collection, depicts Eros (Cupid) riding a dolphin.
STL Units: By default, the STL file is exported using the same units specified in the model. If you select it, the Y axis becomes the vertical axis instead of the Z axis. Swap YZ Coordinates: By default, this checkbox is cleared. The binary format is generally preferred because this format helps reduce the size of an STL file. File Format: By default, Binary is selected from the drop-down list. This option is helpful if you want to model several parts that fit together in one SketchUp model file, but export each part to a separate 3D-printable STL file. Export Only Current Selection: When you select this checkbox, SketchUp exports only the selected geometry to the STL file. The STL Export Options dialog box enables you to choose a few options for how SketchUp renders your exported file: SketchUp exports your model to the STL format and saves the file in the location you specified. Back in the Export Model dialog box, click Export. (See the following list for details about each option.) Click OK when you’re done. (Optional) Click the Options button, and in the STL Export Options dialog box, select your desired options for the exported STL file. From the Format drop-down list, select STereolithography File (.stl). From the Save As Type drop-down list, select STereolithography File (.stl). (Optional) In the appropriate text box, type a name for the exported STL file. Navigate to the location where you want to save your exported file. To export a SketchUp model to an STL file, first make sure that your model meets the basic recommendations for 3D printing. You can change the units to centimeters, feet, or inches by selecting an option from the drop-down list.Įxporting a SketchUp model as an STL File STL Units: The default unit is millimeters. In other words, the Y axis is up instead of the Z axis. model/x.stl-binary was added to the Mimetype line in the desktop. Last changelog: Updated mime type 3 years ago. Swap YZ Coordinates: When you select this checkbox, the Y coordinate becomes the vertical coordinate. Copy the file 'isomanager-mount-image.sh' to /bin (if you prefer other location you should edit accordingly the Exec line under Desktop Action mount from the file 'sktop'). Preserve Drawing Origin: You likely want to clear this checkbox and let SketchUp choose an origin or reset the origin after import. By default, this checkbox is cleared, which preserves multiple objects on multiple layers. Merge Coplanar Faces: In most cases, you want to select this checkbox, which merges all faces on the same plane into one face. The STL Import Options dialog box enables you to make a few selections about how geometry and scale are handled when SketchUp imports your file: After you drop the file, the relevant Import dialog box opens so you can select your desired options. Tip: You can also drag and drop importable files into the drawing area.
