Hi,
I wanted to ask if its possible to export the 3d data to a stl file or any other filetype for 3d printing.
Kind regards

Hi — it’s actually very easy. When you have a surface file loaded in BrainSuite, you can just save it and use a .stl extension. From the Surface Display toolbox, you would select the surface you want to save, click on the save icon, and type a filename ending in .stl.

However, I just tried this on my Mac running Monterey (12.6) and it now won’t let me do that. I think this is a recent change with the OS, so I’ll fix that in the next release. It should still work on Linux or Windows.

Give that a try and let me know how it goes. What surface are you trying to print?

thanks,
David Shattuck

Hi, I want to convert the scalp surface .dfs format to .stl format via command line, can I do that? Or just save the surface as .stl format.
