Osnap problem with rhino for mac eval: no z axis
@spmccann23 wrote:
hi all,
I am very new to rhino and on the trial version i am attempting to use osnap to snap two points together. however I am unable to snap along the x,y and the z at the same time. if i want to stack two cubes, i have to first move in the xy, snap to a point, and then separate command to move vertically.
is there a method i’m missing or an object snap type i should be using besides ‘end’? i know its a small problem but its taking more time than it should.

What would be the path for a python script on a Mac?

A friend who works on a Mac would like to try a python script I have. I’m suggesting she set it up with “VS” as the alias. I do not work on Mac and don’t know what the path would be. Any help would be appreciated.

Organize tool icons in left sidebar
@kalmdown wrote:
Is there a way to organize the left sidebar? Is a random mess right now. For example select is spread out across the grid. Groups and blocks are not collocated. Show points isn’t collocated with other view tools.
Would like to separate sets of things, and use space more efficiently.
Also would like to move some of the more system-level commands up to the bar at top that has mode toggles like Grid Snap, Gumball, etc. Again, there is a lot of wasted space up there where it would be good see the state of the toggles and have easy access to them.

Defect? - Gumball snapped to geometry, but Move using another point
@kalmdown wrote:
Wanted to snap corner of object to grid so I used the CMD key to snap the gumball to the lower-left point of the object as seen in the image. However when I went to move the gumball the point (to the right of the corner) is what Rhino used to snap. Only had End snap on.

Rhino5 on Mac 10.14.6 cannot see lines or other objects that are created
@pmonahan wrote:
I’m using Rhino5 on Mac 10.14.6 cannot see lines or other objects that are created. It seems they have been created, because I can undo, but I cannot see or find the objects.
I can create 3d objects in the same space and they are visible.
I’ve zoomed Extents>>All, then performed a Cmd-A to select all object and the objects don’t seem to exist
Am I missing something obvious ?
Thanks

Project Point Grid onto Surface
@sophiau6 wrote:
Hello,
I am trying to follow a teacher’s tutorial on how to smooth a surface. I just rebuilt a patched surface, and now I am trying to project a flat point grid onto from below. For whatever reason, after I select the surface and type project, I cannot select the point grid (I tried using select objects on this layer and simply highlighting it). Any help on how to get it projected and selected would be greatly appreciated.

Make layers into alphabetical order
@karen0317lin wrote:
Hi, I’m pretty new to rhino and currently using rhino 5 for Mac.
I wonder is it possible to make layers into alphabetical order since I imported my dwg file from Vectorworks and it transferred my classes into layers (which is fine) but in the wrong order. I got like 50 classes now in disorder and the line types of each layer is not working as well. Is there any solution for the layer problem of imported file?

UI in Rhino 6 super laggy?
@nickboewing wrote:
Hello forum,
I know that obviously there has been a lot of discussion about Rhino 6 being seemingly slower than Rhino 5 for Mac. And I’m sorry in advance if I light up this annoying topic once more.
Even though for me the viewports and commands seem to be running just fine and often a lot faster in 6 than in 5, I noticed that it was mainly the UI of rhino 6 that runs a hell of a lot slower for me.
By that I mean the buttons lighting up and the drop down menus etc… It’s not that important for modelling (also because virtually every command is commonly typed), but still it makes for a super laggy experience.
If there’s already a thread about that can you redirect me to there? Has anyone noticed the same? Is there a remedy?
Here are two videos to make my point:

Is there a way to (quickly) offset 4 edges of a surface similar to formZ and/or sketchup?
@Marc_Roberts wrote:
I apologize for the rookie question here as I’m trying to get back to using Rhino as my primary modeler (10ish years removed), but there is a tool in FormZ that I use extensively: Offset Outline. If you’re familiar with SketchUp it’s “Offset”.
Scenario:
If I have a 24"x24"x2" cube, I can use the Offset Outline tool to offset the boundary on a specific surface a desired distance. Let’s say I offset 1.5". Then I can Reshape (in SketchUp terms: Push/Pull) the geometry of the outer perimeter and now I have a cube that is 22.5"x22.5"x2".What is the best way to do this in Rhino? I’ve been playing with the various Offset tools and I can’t find anything that is achieving my goal here. I have found that I can individually select a face and move it in 1.5", but it’s not ideal to select a face, Gumball input, spin, select a face, input, spin…
Any thoughts on this would be very helpful

No feedback on EditPtOn or PointsOn fails
@kalmdown wrote:
I have an object selected. When I select the Control Points On command the object just deselects. I’d like the reason for this displayed so I can stop it from happening…Why didn’t Rhino turn on the objects Ctrl Points. Is there a setting on the object, in the scene, etc that caused this?
System feedback on why an expected action did not occur (I was able to select the object, and pick Control Points On) would be user-friendly.

Save Problems in Mac Version
@black33ford wrote:
First of all, I don’t understand why there isn’t a ‘save as’ in the File menu.
The issue I’m having right now is that every time I save the file goes to /users//Library/Mobile Documents/
That’s not anything I selected. When I rename the file, it still does not give me a choice of where to save it; it goes to the same place.

Wish: set Antialiasing in ViewCaptureToFile
@encephalon wrote:
when i export a capture as a png with transparent background i get aliasing issues. currently i have to switch into the open gl aliasing settings to change it to 8, which is also a bit too little for this purpose, something like 16 would be better i assume. after that i have to change the global open gl aliasing back again, just feels a bit like a Sisyphus workflow.
could there be some sort of adjustment while being in the ViewCaptureToFile dialogue which is only valid for exporting images, not having to change the global open gl settings, or am i missing something?
by the way, i really like that feature with the transparent setting now, a very nice way to implement renders of models into layouts.

Scale part of an object
@jeremyp wrote:
I have a bunch of scaling to do and I’m hoping to avoid recreating parts.
Is there a way to reduce or increase the length of an object without affecting the geometry of the ends of object? In this case I have mitred joinery on each end of closed polysurface. So I am looking for a way to shorten the polysurface and preserve the 45º angle at each end. Possible?
I’m using Rhino 5.
