STL_FLAT(1)

💖 STL_FLAT 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the stl_flat manual page — this is a User Commands situation and honestly? it's giving geometry queen ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

stl_flat — bestie, this thing orients an STL file so that the plane with the largest surface area of triangles that doesn't have any triangles in front of it is facing down. no cap, that's literally the whole job 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so, like, stl_flat orients an STL file so the plane with the largest surface area of triangles that doesn't have any triangles in front of it is facing down. periodt. that's the vibe, that's the assignment 🫶

here's how you actually call it:

usage: stl_flat <input file> [ <output file> ]

• <input file> — the STL you're handing over, no questions asked 🌟
• [ <output file> ] — optional, lowkey the place your newly-flattened STL goes 🎀

and what does it do with them, you ask? (you didn't ask but i'm telling you anyway 😭) it orients the STL file so the plane with the largest surface area of triangles that doesn't have any triangles in front of it is facing down. iconic behavior fr fr 💀✨

real talk though: that's the entire documented behavior. no extra flags, no secret switches, no hidden menu. it's just one job and it ate 👑

okay that's the whole page, bestie — go flatten something gorgeous 🦋
