Hello everyone,
I noticed that no blocks that contain points can be imported with “Content Import”.
(see screenshot)
Is this already known or, better yet, is there a workaround for this?
I would be happy to receive answers and information.
Thanks.
mfg Matthias
HI Matthias,
I’ll try and replicate, can you run the SystemInfo command in Rhino and paste the result? Thanks

Thanks Matthais,
Can you provide a sample? At the moment i’m assuming these are blocks created with one of these plugins and haven’t been made compatible with the model object as of yet.
Any additional information will be helpful. Thanks
no problem, I have to thank you for the help.
Attached is the zip file.
RM_TEST + GH_RM_TEST = Application
RM_Completely and RM_without Points = blocks to import

Hi Matthias -
That seems fine here:
Perhaps you could try disabling VisualARQ in the Plug-in Manager and restarting Rhino after that?

Hi Matthias -
From that screenshot, it looks like the Tibidabo plug-in is still running. I’d disable that as well.

Lets see if there is a conflict with one of your 3rd Party grasshopper plugins.
Close Rhino and start a new instance, this time launch Grasshopper from the Rhino command line with GrasshopperLoadOneByOne and say no to 3rd party gh plugins.
Unfortunately, I have to disappoint you again.
On Kagaroo, I clicked no, but it still appears but is empty
Thanks,
Does this example work for you?
R8_Block_With_Points.gh (6.5 KB)
R8-File-With-Points.3dm (46.6 KB)
Your example worked, so I looked for differences and found a possible error.
In my block example there are objects with multiple layers, no matter if I put a point or a curve on another layer, it doesn’t work.
Thanks, very odd that we can’t repeat with your file.
I put the block contents on different layers, does this throw an error for you?
R8-File-With-Points.3dm (49.6 KB)
yes, that’s strange.
Your file doesn’t work again, but when I edit the block and put everything on one layer it works.
