HEXOstudios uses the same few words for every format, on file cards and in the preview panel.
- PROCESSING
- HEXOstudios is reading the file, has it queued, or is trying again after a passing problem. It is the only state still in progress.
- UNSUPPORTED VARIANT
- The file uses a feature or version HEXOstudios cannot draw yet. It never means the file is damaged.
- GEOMETRY INCOMPLETE
- STEP files only: HEXOstudios processed the file but could not produce complete, usable geometry.
- INCOMPLETE FILE
- HEXOstudios found the file is damaged or cut short, for example a file of 0 bytes. Used only when the damage is proven.
- ENCRYPTED FILE
- An encrypted 3MF package. It cannot be shown without its owner’s key, and it is not damaged.
- EMPTY MODEL
- The file opens, but holds no shape to show.
- TOO LARGE FOR THIS MAC
- The file is fine, but it is over the size limit for one file, or needs more memory than this Mac can give one model.
- NEEDS MORE MEMORY
- STEP files only: the model needs more memory than this Mac can give one model. The preview shows how much.
- PARTIAL PREVIEW
- Shown with a model HEXOstudios drew that is not complete.
- FILE OFFLINE
- The drive the file is on is not connected. It is not a verdict on the file.
