I can’t figure out why my script is crashing rhino. I can successfully complete the layout but not the detail.
The instant before rhino crashes a white rectangle appears on top of all four rhino viewports. Its definitely something that I am doing wrong. Not a rhino problem.
Looks like there is a similar post to mine, without an answer.
Hi @Ryan14,
Here is a working sample. Perhaps you can adapt it to your requirements.
import Rhino
import scriptcontext
def AddLayout():
scriptcontext.doc.PageUnitSystem = Rhino.UnitSystem.Millimeters
page_views = scriptcontext.doc.Views.GetPageViews()
page_number = 1
if page_views: page_number = len(page_views) + 1
pageview = scriptcontext.doc.Views.AddPageView("A0_{0}".format(page_number), 1189, 841)
if pageview:
top_left = Rhino.Geometry.Point2d(20,821)
bottom_right = Rhino.Geometry.Point2d(1169, 20)
detail = pageview.AddDetailView("ModelView", top_left, bottom_right, Rhino.Display.DefinedViewportProjection.Top)
if detail:
pageview.SetActiveDetail(detail.Id)
detail.Viewport.ZoomExtents()
detail.DetailGeometry.IsProjectionLocked = True
detail.DetailGeometry.SetScale(1, scriptcontext.doc.ModelUnitSystem, 10, scriptcontext.doc.PageUnitSystem)
# Commit changes tells the document to replace the document's detail object
# with the modified one that we just adjusted
detail.CommitChanges()
pageview.SetPageAsActive()
scriptcontext.doc.Views.ActiveView = pageview
scriptcontext.doc.Views.Redraw()
if __name__=="__main__":
AddLayout()

I still can’t figure out where I am going wrong.
I copied your code while inputting the gh variables in place of the things that I wanted to change to no avail. I also change the document settings from mills to inches.
Here’s the result.
Still no thoughts on this?
Good Morning @dale
Here is the Gh File I cannot get to work.
Layout bounding box.gh (8.9 KB)
Thank you for your patients with me. It is much appreciated.
Just tried it. Instant crash. 
@dale
Something interesting. If you watch the last second of the capture the It shows the default 4 view (Unintentionally) and there is a little grey viewport tab right behind the (Top) Viewport Tab.
@dale
Sure Thing!

Thanks @Ryan14,
GH isn’t all that happy about layouts being created from a solution. I’ve created an issue so we can investigate further.

@dale
You are amazing. Thank you for your time and for looking into this for me. Let me know if you ever find an answer.
Thanks

I know I am tacking onto an older post, still this year though.
I am running into this same exact issue. I can create the layouts in gh no problem, as soon as I try to use the AddDetail function Rhino crashes.
any headway on this in Rhino 7?
What does this comment mean?
Giulio Piacentino commented 24 Aug 2023 05:53
@Dale Fugier this is the old GhPython. I’ve fixed this, but I’m not sure about the new Python plans.

After creating the layouts in gh, I can select things in rhino and on the gh canvas, which is different from a comment in the issue.
Oh! in the issue it references 7.34 as the release target. I’m on 7.33
