I am at a loss as to how to see what items are in the repository. As an example, one of the items I looked at was named mailbox. Now I don't know if that's a street drop box or a rural mailbox and I would like to know. So I click on the files and I get nothing. The CAD exploded shows nothing. I download it and CURA show the file icon but it won't show me anything else. I know this is operator error. I just don't know what error it is so I can fix it.
Would appreciate any help.

I couldn't tell you why but the pictures (jpegs) won't display in the preview in Chrome for me. But you can right click them. Then left click "download" and you should be able to left the file at the bottom of your window once it downloads. I went to the mail box and I had to download it to see a photo.
I don't know if Cura displays STP files. But you should be able to drag an STL file in there no problem.
See if this helps and let me know if it doesn't!
I tried from a completely different folder and it seemed to work. The folder I was in had half a dozen things in it and none worked. Maybe there was something wrong or different, but now I can see and manipulate files. Thanks for the encouragement to keep trying.

Charlie,
Did you read the first post in the *Access & Information* thread? It's kind of a *must* read.
The server for the Repository is in my house... it's *not* on OGR. I kept it light (that's why you cannot view photographs on the server) so it's not totally inundated (it can get a thousand hits a day) and to make sure that downloading remains reasonably quick. Remember... it's free!
