Enable/Disable Plug-in On file StartUp

[eric.christmas]

Hi,

I am looking to find out if there is anyway to make a specific file enable/disable a plug in when initiated. For example I want whenever file “A” starts the 3D Connexion Mouse plug-in becomes disabled.

Thank you for any help that can be provided.

Not that I can think of.
You can disable a plug-in, then set it to be asked about loading it when Rhino starts, but that’s not linked to a specific 3DM file. It’s tied to how Rhino starts.

This is helpful thank you for your reply.

In the plug-in manager, you can apply load protection to a plug-in. That way it will ask you if you want to load the plug-in every time you start Rhino, if you say no, it won’t load…

I also have a script that I use to enable/disable certain plug-ins, but it requires restarting Rhino after punching the button to load or unload.

Check if this helps. It will be annoying for all documents you’ll see a popup asking if you want that plugin enabled, but I think it’s a good workaround for your issue.
