Method for producing three-dimensional shaped object and data generation method

Abstract

A method for producing a three-dimensional shaped object includes a first acquisition step for acquiring first shape data representing a three-dimensional shape of the three-dimensional shaped object and first shaping data that is generated on the basis of the first shape data and that is for shaping the three-dimensional shaped object; a first display step for displaying the three-dimensional shaped object on a display section based on the first shape data; a determination step for determining a target region of the three-dimensional shaped object that is displayed on the display section based on a designation region that designates a range in three-dimensional space; a second acquisition step for selecting data of a portion corresponding to the target region in the first shaping data and acquiring second shaping data; and a shaping step, based on the second shaping data, for performing three-dimensional shaping to stack layers by discharging shaping material from a discharge section toward a stage.
