Multi-plate 3MF projects
Updated Jul 12, 2026 · 1 min read
Bambu multi-plate projects open in the viewer with every plate parsed and a switcher to step through them.
A 3MF is often a whole project rather than a single mesh. Meshory parses multi-plate Bambu 3MF files plate by plate: open one in the viewer and every part sits in place on its plate, with a plate switcher to step through the project one plate at a time. Projects with more than one plate also get a Multi-plate tag automatically, so you can filter for them.
In the grid, a 3MF project shows the preview image the slicer embedded when the project was saved (usually the first plate), so multi-color projects appear with their real colors. If a 3MF has no embedded preview, Meshory renders the mesh itself in a clean single-color style instead.
If a 3MF tile looks empty in the grid, see Why a 3MF shows blank. It's usually still rendering or is a project file with no preview mesh.
