If it goes wrong
- Filafy says the surface is not flat enough. Pick a flat face. Filafy cannot paint a curved surface.
- A warning says the model may not fit. Check that it fits
Set up the print
A painted model prints without its original colors. Filafy does not keep the colors that are already painted on a 3MF. It prints the model as if it had no paint, and your image is the only paint on the model.
