Hi,

Does anyone happen to know how to merge multiple surfaces into continuous one that for 3d printing? Beacuse I am afraid when I offset the surface with thickness and it forms kink that could cause some problems for 3d printing. Please have a look at the rhino file. Thanks!

Annotation for Patent Drawing -

$

@hwanghwali wrote:

I am annotating black and white drawings for the patent office. They require clean numbers and letters without any special fonts, added circles, colors. When I used the DRAFTING tools, and place into perspective, the orientation of the numbers is dependent on the view, and shifts as I more the perspective. So, I use the Annotate Dot. This solves the orientation problem.

Problem is that I can not format the dot independent from the layer. So, I created an annotation layer for each layer that I plan to print for the patent office, and then adjusted the annotation layer to white. This works.

But, I still cannot eliminate the circle/oval frame that surrounds the number. How do I eliminate this frame.

Is there a better way to create non-orientation dependent annotation? Or is Anno Dot the only method.

I have Rhino 5 for Windows.

Line type/width for blocks

I need the line representation for the objects in a particular block to follow the settings of the layer the different instances of the block are on.

Should setting the objects to display linetype “by parent”, and the linetype for the block instances to “by layer” do this?

Has anyone successfully installed and run RhinoCFD Lite in Rhino 5?
I’m running Rhino 5 on Windows 10 Pro.
I’ve run the MSMpiSetup.exe. The Rhino5CFD_2v0.rhi seemed to successfully install and I have a RhinoCFD tab and toolbar, but when I try to duplicate the steps in the RhinoCFD Basics Simple tutorial, I’m unable to create an inlet and an outlet when selecting Edit CFD properties as I get no Domain settings dialog. I’ve spent hours trying to get it to work per the tutorial, and have yet to receive a reply from CHAM in response to my repeated requests for help.
Thanks,
David

Joining Meshes became super slow in recent V6 builds : (

Hi @Pascal,

Not sure what changed in Rhino recently, but joining meshes became super slow and seriously gets in the way of our workflow where this is something we have to do very often.

Joining 100K+ pieces together in V5 or earlier versions of V6 is really just a blink of an eye fast, and now in latest V6 Rhino freezes for a good minute.
Please see attached sample file to compare, if you have access to V5 or earlier V6 builds… Hope this can get fixed!

EDIT: working with Version 6 SR16
(6.16.19150.22171, 5/30/2019)

thank you,

Both ‘Rounded Rectangle’ and ‘Annotate’ commands (from toolbar icons) are not working. However, both function correctly from the Command line. This occurs in my versions in Rhino 6 and Rhino 5. This only started happening after the Windows 1903 update, anyone know what’s happening?

Hey all,

I recently started using a Dell laptop with Dell Precision Optimizer. It has profiles for Illustrator, Photoshop, Revit, that will optimize the performance of the laptop for this specific software.
However I can’t seem to find or manually make a profile that will optimize the performance for Rhinoceros.

Anyone has any experience with this or any tips?

Thanks!

Hi guys, this is an old wish that needs to be refreshed. (Or I need to learn how to do it :wink: )

It would be SOOO great to have a tool that could turn on control points for polycurves where lower degree curve segments were not affected by higher degree segments.

And if it is possible then I would love to learn how to do that.

Cheers!

Rendering a single object within a linked block

@sam.martin wrote:

I’m currently rendering a scene using Maxwell for Rhino, and I would like to be able to render single objects, or a collection of objects within my scene. However, the problem I’m having is that my ‘render’ file consists of a series of linked blocks, and I’m not able to individually render any objects within this file as I’m not able to select individual objects. Attempting to do so simply selects the entire block or opens the block file in a separate session of Rhino.

Is there any method to select individual objects within a linked block, for the purposes of rendering?

Thanks and apologies if I’m actually missing an obvious step.

Running Rhino on Citrix XenApp XenDesktop

I’ve tried to run Rhino 4 and Rhino 6 on virtualized environment through Citrix XenApp, XenDeskop, but was not sucessful. Even with running educational lab licence at school Zoo, Rhino doesn’t run on one VM (one IP address) for more than one account. By looking at other SW products like Autodesk AutoCAD or SketchUp, which have no problem with Citrix, question comes to my mind:
Do you plan to develop new Rhino version which would work on Citrix XenDesktop, XenApp platform? Looks like there is more and more interest for this platform worldwide. Thanks for info.

Rendered Display - Incorrect texture mapping

$

@sam.martin wrote:

Hi,

I’m having some issues with how Rhino is displaying maxwell materials in the rendered display port. For some materials / objects, it ignores the texture scaling that I’ve applied ( as in the oak boards below) and in other cases, it displays the bump texture component of a material (the black floor texture). I therefore have to refer to Maxwell fire for texture scaling etc.

Thanks (screenshot below)

Dimension styles grayed out and not showing in my list

I noticed this when I went to import my dimension styles from my template.

Upon import it asks to replace the ones already there, but they are not showing on the list when I set dimension style. I do see the dimension styles in question in my settings list, but they are grayed out. So Rhino thinks they are there, but being grayed out they are somehow not “active”.

Thoughts?
