    8888In order to import external data, we will need to use one of the ''mesh objects'' listed at the top of the '''3D Module''' ('''Figures 2 & 3''') (''Sphere, Torus, Cone, Cube, Plane, Cylinder, etc.'') to carry it into the software. This is all done in this module, and then we visualize it in the '''Render Module.''' We start in the ''General'' tab.
     
    90901. In this case we chose the ''sphere.'' Simply click the icon, then click in any of the four windows. Then click again to choose the size of the sphere. The size does not matter, as we will get rid of the sphere later on. We just need it to carry the data into Shape.

    92 2. Note that under the general tab we can change the name of the object. We do this here in '''Figure 4''', to ''External Sphere''. You don't have to change it. But it might be useful in case you want to import other simulations in the same session.
     922. Note that under the general tab we can change the name of the object. We do this here in '''Figure 4''' (below), to ''External Sphere''. You don't have to change it. But it might be useful in case you want to import other simulations in the same session.
    9393
    94943. Choose the ASCII format, as that is the format our simulation is in. Then click the square button next to the drop down tab, to import the data in the ''Input Parameters'' dialog. This is what it looks like before we direct Shape to where our ASCII file is.
