Hi!
Is it possible to visualize the new data types (I’m interested specifically in the new dimensions) using the Add Builder components?
Hi Pedro, I am assuming you mean the new Annotation objects that come with Rhino 8?
We already made sure those work with the Export components (meaning you can create CAD files and export them from online models with annotations created in Grasshopper).
However, regarding visualization in the viewer, this is something we have to finalize yet.
If you are only interested in linear dimensions, most ShapeDiver users recreate them with lines and tags (2d and 3d text tags are supported in the viewer) at the moment. For other types of dimensions, this is a bit trickier. However, note that you have a workaround by exploding annotation objects into geometry and send the resulting objects to the display component:
Scripting might be necessary to control things like size and orientation of the text.
Thanks for getting back to me.
Yes, these are the components I was talking about.
I need just linear dimensions, so I’m afraid I’ll have to take the workaround until they are available for the viewer ^^
