๐ผ๏ธ Designs
The Designs gallery is the starting point of the technical catalog. Each Design represents a 3D file (STL) with its print parameters. From a Design you create Pieces with specific materials and colors.
The gallery and its statistics
In the section header you'll see three counters:
| Indicator | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Total designs | Number of designs in the catalog. |
| Total pieces | Number of Pieces created from all designs. |
| Incomplete | Designs that have some missing data (no associated Pieces, no STL fileโฆ). Hovering over this number shows the details of what's missing. |
View modes and filters
- Gallery view (grid) or list view: toggle in the top-right corner.
- Search: filters by design name.
- Filter by tags: multiple-tag selection to view only the designs in a category.
- Page size: 20, 50 or 100 designs per load. "Load more" button at the bottom.
A Design card
Each card shows:
- Thumbnail of the design (or a placeholder if there's no image).
- Design name.
- Number of Pieces associated with it.
- Warning badge if it's incomplete.
A Design's detail view
When you click on a design you'll see:
- The design information: title, description, internal notes, tags and photos.
- The STL file (downloadable).
- The list of Pieces associated with that design, with their materials, colors and costs.
- From here you can create new Pieces for that design.
Creating a new Design
- Click "+ New design" in the gallery.
- Upload the STL file (or provide the URL).
- Fill in the name and, if you want, description, internal notes and tags. Also add the design's photos.
- Save โ and from the design's detail view, create its Pieces. The technical data (dimensions, weight and print time) is defined on each Piece, not on the Design.
Who can manage Designs?
Workers, Admins and Owners can create and edit. Read-only users can only view.
