    Yes... That .STL file I just posted is from the code posted earlier.

    That picture you showed earlier had the code running and doing the correct thing. The problem was the .STL file was not being found and imported. You may not have noticed I changed the name of the .STL file. Take the .STL file you attached to this thread and put it into the same directory as where the source code for the .SCAD script is located.

    Then either change the name of the .STL file to be fibofidget.stl or change the name given to the import() function. The two names need to be the same. And then you will get the correct image. If you just make the .SCAD program be this code initially, you will see if it is finding and loading the .STL file. If you can't get the .STL file to load, it doesn't make sense to make modifications to it.

    Code:
    do_fill();
    
    module do_fill() {
       translate([-7,-14,0]) import("fibofidget.stl");
    }
