Sorry if this repeats – but I can’t find solution.
I am trying to export a rhino drawing (2d with surfaces) to illustrator.
I can export the outlines of my rhino drawing – surfaces do not get exported. They show up with no fill such that it looks like I just exported a wireframe.
Ok, since you are new to Rhino’s hatches:
Make sure you check out the “Boundary” option. It is like “curveboolean” and lets you click inside the areas you want to hatch, or outside the curves if you want a silhoutette. Saves tons of time compared to manually fiddeling with the boundry edges.
And also make sure you know about “Draw Order” with SendToBack, SendBackward, BringToFront, BringForward and ClearDraworder.
You can also turn on controlpoints for hatches and duplicate the edges if you need to do advanced editing. And you can match a hatch to another hatch.
