Copy/Paste doesn't work

What is a “developers program” in this context? Sorry, I’m not following that.

Thanks for your software info. I don’t see any red-flags there…but it was good to check.

Good to hear that Copy/Paste is working in 5.2.4…but still concerning that you’re seeing it in the RhinoWIP. It would be nice to get to the bottom of this. So far, you are the only person reporting this, as far as I know.

Nothing happens Jeff.But after aSellAll and then Paste it will.

This is what I get- Developer tool acces-
Can it be that this occurs because I have been downloading RhinoCommon?

I believe, in English, this translates to:

Developer tools access needs to take control of another process for debugging to continue. Type your password to allow this.

I have no idea what is causing this dialog to appear. When does it appear? As soon as you launch Rhino for Mac?

Do you have Xcode installed? To your knowledge, did you enable Developer Mode on this Mac?

No, RhinoCommon is bundled with Rhino for Mac, it is not a separate download.

Thanks Dan,

Was indeed Xcode, works now.
WIP works as well, but a little different than 5.2.4.
The new screen looks active, but I have to manually activate te new screen before Pasting and than it works.

Thanks for your help.

Hi Dan,

5.2.4. Won’t open again! Yesterday it worked now it won’t.
No developer tool what so ever, basket case emptied.
I’ve made a new installation, removed the WIP.
Maybe something with the license?

I guess this thread can be considered officially hijacked :grimacing:

Can you please be more specific when you say:

Won’t open again!

I am interpreting this as: When you click on the Rhinoceros icon in the Dock, it bounces, but then stops bouncing and nothing happens. Is that the behavior you are experience? If not, can you please elaborate?

What happend was- I clicked the Rhino icon in the dock, it opened. Then when I clicked new model, it won’t open
I first thought it was blocked by a developers program, so I got writ of Xcode. Then it opens for one or two times and it blocked again. So I uninstalled all of the Rhinofiles except for the com.mcneel.rhinoceros.plist but the problem existed.
Then after I made a total uninstall and reinstalled it again it finally worked.

Copy /Paste still differs in WIP compared to 5.24, it still needs an extra tab before pasting.

I’ve been seeing copy/paste issues too starting with 132w and continuing in 143w across several systems. Seemed intermittent, and eventually will paste (repeated attempts), so carried-on. Took a moment and found a repeatable pattern.

  1. Launch Rhino Mac into new model
  2. Draw cube in Perspective window and copy it to clipboard
  3. Create new model (File-New) and do not change (rotate, switch, etc) any view
  4. command-V or tools-commands-paste from clipboard or file-paste will not paste

You can see the Tools menu ‘flash’ when evoking command-V

Now rotate the view and paste - object should paste.

A change in view seems to be one of the triggers that permits paste, at least for me. Strange…

Thanks @ec2638. I see that too. Logged as RH-37157.

ok.
i encountered this today… i can’t remember the exact steps leading up to it but yeah, couldn’t paste into a new model.

This bug should be fixed in the next RhinoWIP (yet to be published; but coming soon in 2017). Thanks again @ec2638 for reporting steps to reproduce this!

Happy to help. @Martin was on it first, but felt for him beating on his Mac and struggling with an English description…

Thanks!

Please check out the latest RhinoWIP…this should be fixed there.
