I have a mesh to import of a part designed in Mastercam. I have saved it in Mastercam as an stl file. It is a very complicated mesh so I want to use facets normals so I check the box, but 2.81 throws this error:

bpy.ops.object.select_all(action='DESELECT') bpy.ops.transform.translate(value=(-0, -0, -0.286018), orient_type='GLOBAL', orient_matrix=((1, 0, 0), (0, 1, 0), (0, 0, 1)), orient_matrix_type='GLOBAL', constraint_axis=(False, False, True), mirror=True, use_proportional_edit=False, proportional_edit_falloff='SMOOTH', proportional_size=1, use_proportional_connected=False, use_proportional_projected=False, release_confirm=True) bpy.ops.transform.translate(value=(10.1709, 0, 0), orient_type='GLOBAL', orient_matrix=((1, 0, 0), (0, 1, 0), (0, 0, 1)), orient_matrix_type='GLOBAL', constraint_axis=(True, False, False), mirror=True, use_proportional_edit=False, proportional_edit_falloff='SMOOTH', proportional_size=1, use_proportional_connected=False, use_proportional_projected=False, release_confirm=True) Traceback (most recent call last):   File "C:\Program Files\Blender Foundation\Blender

    mesh.show_edge_sharp = True AttributeError: 'Mesh' object has no attribute 'show_edge_sharp'

location: <unknown location>:-1

I have tried to delve into the python files and add 'show_edge_sharp' attributes to the mesh object in the init.py and blender_utils.py files, but this doesn't seem to work.

As far as posting the code goes, I have not as these are just the standard add-on files that come with the install.

Any ideas?

  • $\begingroup$ HI @Mark, I was playing with this today, 2.81 can certainly import STL, I've tested it today. Try one of these sample STL files. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ Hi @Merlin thanks for reply. I have updated the question as I forgot the "facet normal" twist. Does yours work with checking the facet normal box? $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ Nope, that causes an error for me too. Funny I was going to ask about that :) $\endgroup$
