Do any of you know of a way to show thumbnail previews of STL files in Windows Explorer? Or, is there a basic STL viewer available? I will be using STL files (my only option) as an interim file format to import into another program from SolidWorks, and it would be helpful if I could see previews of the file(s) before import. Ideas? Thanks,

Brian

Search Google for Hoops ACIS viewer. If I remember correctly it will also open an stl.
