Cut Objects

Lab2

While playing with Repetier-Host V1.0.6 I turned on Cut Objects. Now I can't find how to turn it off

Repetier

In the right top corner the "x" closes it just like the scale and rotate modes.

When I am seeing the "Cut Object" parameters, clicking the X hides the parameters, but leaves the view of the object still cut.

How do I get back to viewing the full, uncut object?

Repetier

For me it also restores whole object. If not move position slider to the right, but should not be required.

Found my problem. It thought my object was too large, when I did a scale to maximum, it reduced the size and now behaves after cutting.

Is there a way to determine the dimensions of an object?

Lab2

The reason it was too large is because the dimensions in the file were in millimeters. I had later read a file in inches, and forgot to change back before loading this one.

Thanks for your comments. I learned a few new things.

In the right tab with the stl names is a gear. Clicking it gives mor einfos about a object like size, surface, volume errors etc.

Thanks.  Why does a simple cube have 12 faces rather than 6?

Repetier

Faces are triangles. Enable edge drawing and you see it.
