Toensurethatmodelsdonotoverlapwhenyoupositionthemonthebuild

Whenselected,ObjetStudioonlyallowsthepositioningofobjectsifthey

Note: Because of the unique characteristics of each type of modeling
material, it is recommended that you select the material before
precisely positioning objects on the tray.

Objects
Youcanmanipulatetwoormoreobjectsonthebuildtray,atthesametime.
To group objects:
1. Selecttheobjects(see“SelectingObjects”onpage 5).

To separate grouped objects:
1. Selectthegroupelement(eitheronthebuildtrayorinthetray
hierarchypane).
2. ClicktheUngroupicon .
or—
FromtheObjectmenu,select
Ungroup.
Even if you do not use Dynamic Checking when placing objects on the build
tray, Objet Studio automatically checks if there is a problem with the
positioning of objects on the tray before sending it to the printer. You can
also manually check for problems after positioning objects (see “Tray
Validation” on page 21).
