Load a graphic STL file saved in a Object in a Simulink solid block.

Hi everyone!
I'm wondering if it is a possibility to use a STL file that is saved in a class instance (object) for the visualization of a solid block in Simmechanics ?
Thanks for your help.

Yes, you can use STL or STEP files for visualization. Note that STEP files are new in R2014a, but they give you the advantage of automatic inertia calculations (assuming uniform mass/density). With STL files, you'll have to manually enter the mass and inertia properties.
What you need to do is set the geometry to "From file" and then specify the file you want to use. Check out the image below.
Also, if you're using SolidWorks, Inventor, or PRO/ENGINEER, you can import entire CAD assemblies into SimMechanics. This is a free add-on named SimMechanics Link.

Interesting... If your object contains the file name of your STL file, then this could work. Instead of browsing to the file, you can instead use a MATLAB expression like
myObject.getSTLFileName()
so long as the output of that function is a MATLAB character array.
If the STL file itself is embedded in the object, that might be pretty tricky :)
