    Status: Solved => Open

Chandrashekhar Sirimala is still having a problem:
The initial problem is solved,  now I'm able to view both the particles in 3d views but I need some clarification on few things like
1. I made my mill geometry in solidworks, and converted it into .STL file, units of dimensions are in meters, so when I import it into yade will it still remain in METERS  ? ( I think so, just want to confirm)

2. After importing the origin of geometry is not the same as the origin
in yade, i.e. the geometry is displaced, I want to know what that
displacement is ?

3. how to view the dimension of any particular body instance ?
   for sphere I know, s.shape.radius returns the radius, but for facets ? for cyilnders ? etc.. 

4.(Imp doubt)  What are the units of dimensions in yade ?
s.shape.radius doesn't return any dimensions :)

thanks in advance
