Prints black from perspective view

If I print from Front, Top, or Right in this file everything prints as it should. When I try to print from the perspective view, it starts out okay and then fills about 7/8 of the page with black. I’m running Rhino6 commercial on Win 8.1. I can print PDF and then print that PDF just fine. It’s only when I try to print directly from Rhino.

Haven’t tried printing perspective wireframe or pen. Could this have something to do with render? Seems like a bug.

Rhino 6 .3dm file won't open in Rhino 5

@spazzo wrote:

Small file… nothing other than basic 2D line drawings and a couple of layers.
Saved as 3dm file on Rhino 6, but won’t open on Rhino 5 saying the following:

“Error
The file (file name) was created by a newer version of Rhinoceros.
This file cannot be read by Rhino 5.0
For information about the latest version of Rhino visit (rhino3d.com)”

  1. Can I somehow convert the file right now using the Rhino 5 computer?
  2. For the future when working from home on Rhino 6, how can I save the file so it can be operable on Rhino 5?

Thanks

Permanently turn off annotation scaling & history warnings

@daveed-kapoor wrote:

i turn off annotation and layout scaling every time i open i file, even if it is off in my template, any time i open an old file it is on, and so frustrating. is there a way to globally disable this feature on my installation?

also the break history warnings are killing me! one of my favorite features of rhino vs. revit was the lack of pop up dialog boxes that force you to read and click thru disturbing our workflow. any way to globally disable, if that makes any sense?

best thing about rhino 6 is artic mode ! so good. and the fraction text + change case is excellent…

I upgraded to Rhino 6 a couple of months ago and suddenly am receiving this message whenever I try to open the program: I just reset my password and then got the same message once again. What’s going on? I’m losing a lot of faith in this new version. I should also add that although I received an email stating that my password was changed, Rhino does not seem to recognize the new one either. Thank you.

Missing buttons for new Rhino 6 commands

@JSchindler wrote:

I can not find the buttons for some new commands in their respective toolbars. For example, I do not see the Catenary Curve in the Curves toolbar, Add Guide Lines in Curve Tools, Move Iso (this one could be assigned as RMB to Extract Isocurve), and so on. In fact most of the buttons shown in the New in V6 toolbar do not show in the toolbars identified in the Help file as their locations. Am I missing something?

Rhino 6 bugs

Hi

I have found some small bugs.

  1. I had problems importing/opening a obj file, There is no problem opening the obj file in Rhino 5. It is only one file so far. I have no problem opening other obj files.

  2. When opening a new file, and then sort layers by name, all layers disapear, until I click the “show all layers” filter button. This happens every time I open Rhino.

Shaded mode extremely slow

Hi

I have a big problem.

When showing the model in shaded mode - show rendering materials, Rhino 6 slows down extremely. I can not use Rhino at all. The model is not heavy at all, and I have no problem working with the model in Rhino 5. This is really annoying.

Anyone know what to do?

No render output

Wish / question Drag UVN shortcut

@a.tchoukanov wrote:

Is there a hotkey to click while dragging a control point to snap to a DragUVN mode (drag along control polygon, or whatever is selected as an option) or move while maintaining curvature?
If there isn’t, it would be nice to move CVs on the fly without going through the dragUVN slider window.

VR and 3D viewer - State of affairs with Rhino

Hi all,

So I realize this thread is recurrent, and I’ve spent some time going through some of the old VR threads on this forum. The original release of the first Oculus Rift had generated some interesting threads with people experimenting different rigs.

Now that Oculus has released a $200 self-contained unit that does not require a big computer, and that the mobile platforms are pushing hard to make VR and AR a reality (pun intended), what is the state of affairs with Rhino?

Flat 2D renders will be here to stay, and Rhino (+ plugins) does a great job, but how will the platform accommodate 3D? Last year I dabbled in preparing a model for the Unity Platform, with some success, but it still felt very clunky. It feels to me like there is a real opportunity here, with the toolset that Rhino has built, to do something really amazing, no?

In parallel to this question we are working with a client and want to show him some views of his project, but sharing Rhino files doesn’t feel comfortable as we would be releasing our model into the world, with very little control over where it goes. I have played with creating 3D PDFs but that also feels “clunky”, the results un-impressive.

There is an opportunity here…!!!

Best,

Tom

Display problem: not matching on two computers

I am working on an animation that will use screen capturing / not rendering. I like technical mode, but I use an over-ride material to show a rendered color for the water, which also has some transparency. On one computer (laptop) everything works as it should. But, it refuses to work on the workstation where I plan to do the project.

I have updated the video card, re-done the geometry AND water material, and flipped on & off every setting I can find in the options for Technical and Rendered views.
