Printables.com Not Showing 3D Model View
I noticed on my 3D model upload I do not have the 3D model preview in the description / thumbnail area.
How do you enable this?
RE: Printables.com Not Showing 3D Model View
I just checked out your Printables page. It's because you've only uploaded .step files. For some reason the previous doesn't work with .step (which is a shame since that's my preferred file format).

Seriously? The 3D render won't work with STEP files!? That's the best format for sharing 3D models amongst different applications is it not? Never would have guessed that was the case. I will upload a STL I guess as well.
RE: Printables.com Not Showing 3D Model View
It would be nice if Printables.com would support STEP directly, but at least it would be possible to implement very quickly auto-conversion from STEP into STL and show that STL in the browser. It could be better than custom uploaded STLs because it can be optimized for web view instead of printing.
