Hello, I have problems using the 3d Slicer trying to export the structures to Stl as one object.

I have import two objects as Stl and link them but they don´t appear as one object.  
I would like to know how I can export them as one object or fuse them as one object.

Hi. I have a problem.  
I would like to export all the projects as an Stl.  
The objects are a fusion of two cranium part that has been imported as two Stl objects.

If models do not overlap then you can use “Merge models” module. If the models overlap then you can compute Boolean union operation using Combine models module - provided by Sandbox extension (you can install it using Extensions manager; the extension is in Examples category).
