'''3D ViewVIEW''' allows the user to preview and make changes to a model or multiple models in a 3D environment.
It is accessed by clicking the [[File:3D View.png]] icon in the pane on the right side of the [[Main Screen]].

In 3D ViewVIEW, the following tools are avaiable:
*[[View Controls#Reset View|Reset View]]
*[[View Controls#Move|Move]]
*[[View Controls#Zoom|Zoom]]
*[[View Controls#Select Part|Select Part]] (only in [[3D ViewVIEW/Edit|Edit mode]])

The '''Export...''' button opens the '''[[File export options''' ]] dialog box which allows the user to export the model in one of several formats. === Export as STL === Saves the model(s) currently in 3D View as its own .stl model file. === Export as AMF === Saves the model(s) currently in 3D View as its own .amf model file. === Export as G-Code === Slices the model(s) currently in 3D View using the [[Settings|slice settings]] currently selected and saves the output as a .gcode file. === [[Export_G-Code_as_X3G|Export as X3G]] === Slices the model(s) currently in 3D View using the [[Settings|slice settings]] currently selected and saves the output as a .x3g file. === Show file in folder after save === [[File:3D_View-Export-Show_file.png]] Checking this box will cause MatterControl to open the operating system's folder manager to the location in which the outputted file was saved after the export is complete.
