Convert STL to ATT via Python
Render STL as ATT without any 3D modeling and rendering software.
Aspose.3D for Python via .NET
Overview
How to Convert STL to ATT Using Python
In order to convert STL to ATT, we’ll use
API which is a feature-rich, powerful and easy to use document manipulation and conversion API for Python. Open
package manager, search for Aspose.3D and install. You may also use the following command from the Package Manager Console.
Command line
pip install aspose-3d
Steps to Convert STL to ATT via Python
Python programmers can easily load & convert STL files to ATT in just a few lines of code.
- Load STL file via the from_file of Scene class
- Create an instance of AmfSaveOptions
- Set ATT specific properties for advanced conversion
- Call the Scene.save method
- Pass the output path with ATT file extension & object of AttSaveOptions
- Check resultant ATT file at specified path
System Requirements
Before running the Python conversion code, make sure that you have the following prerequisites.
- Microsoft Windows or Linux based OS.
- Python 3.5 or later.
- Aspose.3D for Python referenced in your project.
STL What is STL File Format?
STL, abbreviation for stereolithrography, is an interchangeable file format that represents 3-dimensional surface geometry. The file format finds its usage in several fields such as rapid prototyping, 3D printing and computer-aided manufacturing. It represents a surface as a series of small triangles, known as facets, where each facet is described by a perpendicular direction and three points representing the vertices of the triangle. Resultant data is used by applications to determine the cross section of the 3D shape to be built by the fabber. There is no information available in the STL file format for representation of colour, texture or other common CAD model attributes.
