I have seen that some new engineers who enter the GrabCAD community do not pay attention to how they should record and upload the files to the community, ie they do not read the tutorials first; This is why I have decided to make a small and simple, but not less important tutorial, so that in a simple and practical way you can create the photo that you like best and as it looks better in the eyes of the entire community, this with the Purpose that can be valued and appreciated by everyone, and thus avoid this message that gives the system when a file can not see anyone in the community except YOU! "GrabCAD is not able to view this model"

He visto que algunos ingenieros nuevos que entran a la comunidad GrabCAD no le prestan atención a como deben grabar y subir los archivos a la comunidad, es decir, no leen los tutoriales primero; es por esto que he decido hacer un pequeño y sencillo, pero no menos importante tutorial, para que de una manera sencilla y practica puedas crear la foto que mas te guste y como se vea mejor a los ojos de la comunidad entera, esto con el propósito que pueda ser valorada y apreciada por todo el mundo, y así evitar este mensaje que le da el sistema cuando un archivo no lo puede ver nadie en la comunidad, excepto TU!

How to convert 2D BMP images to 3D STLs?

The basic principle is to take a regular 2D image (in BMP format) and translate the image’s gray shades into a 3D height map (Figures 1 and 2). The two-dimensional array (i.e. color) of each element is interpreted as a height value in order to store information on the height of each point. For example; the white points are flat, the gray points are higher and the black points are the highest. The following steps in this procedure were accomplished using Microsoft® Paint image viewing software and Materialise® Magics STL editing software, and make reference to the menu options in those applications. Other similar software programs may be used to accomplish this procedure.

Most of the CAD systems provide a command to save as an image the current view. Usually, this command is available in the "save as" menu or in the option menu
