Drag and drop not working in Fedora/Firefox
I'm having no luck dropping an STL into the window at partmill.com. It just says "You have chosen to open test.stl" and then all I can do is save it to my Downloads directory. An "Upload" button would be great. (Fedora 21, Firefox 40.0.3)
Hi, Thanks for your interest. Part Mill is still at a very early stage and not really usable for anything yet (there is no export yet anyway). I think the (very large) bug you are running into is that it doesn't yet support binary STL files. You might be able to play around slightly more if you can save as ASCII STL. Hopefully I'll be able to resume work on this project again in the near future.
Hmmmm, not so much. Maybe I don't get how web apps work. After dropping the file onto the browser window, I just see my URL as "file:///home/mstock/s00-02_x17_y13.stl" and I'm looking at the contents of the file ("solid vcg facet normal 9.915848e-01" etc.). It's too bad, because there aren't that many gcode generators out there for 3D parts. I hope you either find the time to continue development, or continue on to better and greater things. Thanks!
