To reduce polygons, select the model in the object browser, then hit CTRL/CMD+A to select all the triangles. Then there are two options that will do what you want in different ways. Edit->reduce will reduce the polygons just by trying to subtract them where it can. Edit->remesh with a negative density will also work to reduce polygons.

Good tips! I use the slicing a lot. Also, the scaling is cool since you can enter an overall size along one axis and it can proportionally scale. I like MeshMixer but it's interface is frustrating, with many features effectively hidden by strange interaction modes. For instance, using arrow keys to change snapping increments as you mention. That's crazy! The big ones for me are alignment, slicing, and supports, the latter of which is its killer feature IMO. Happy printing!

Please make a how-to video on how to add color to a single color object (stl file). I've watched a few videos but they all use well designed models. The one's I seem to pick have nothing but problems. Select a region, Face Groups, Generate Complex, Split Complex, or maybe I am missing something somewhere. Export generates several files, not 2 or 3. Anyway, if you could do a video on adding color, that'd be awesome. Both mixing head and a muti-material version, which I think is pretty much the same thing.

Until recently (learned some fusion 360) I did almost everything in 3DSmax. STLs are not the raw file but max can do pretty much everything with them need to edit detail just open up max and move vertices, need to take a watermark off? do the same thing, need to scale it can do it in max, booleans can do them in max. I'm surprised I don't see max talked about AT ALL in 3dp its like it dont even exist. It can cut or also join objects to prevent the shelling issues as well. However after looking at the craftware vid I decided something like that would be good for 3dp quick cutting into pieces for 3d printing them right away without having to be too tedious to get what you want. I'm sure this program has a niche.

Meshmixer can read obj and export it as stl file but there is the problem : the obj file consists of several parts , all already hollow and with special " joints" for printing them separately but i don't want that. Must i "drill" holes in every top, middle and bottom piece to let the resin flow out, or is there a way to fuse the visible outside shell and get rid of the inside membranes?

They won't be lower quality, but your other software might be 'smoothing' out the triangles. Meshmixer has the option to do it too, but I turn it off as 3D Printers will always print with the triangles and no smoothing. Hit "W" to see the wireframe. All stl files are made up of triangles! It's not the best method for printing curved objects...
