the entire Grasshopper interface has become “transparent” or “frameless”. The standard component capsules have lost their borders/backgrounds, and the UI looks broken.
What I have tried so far:
I have completely uninstalled and reinstalled Rhino 8, but the issue persists.
I restarted the machine multiple times.
I suspect some corrupted setting file or XML configuration remained in my Library folder even after uninstalling.
Could you please tell me:
How to perform a hard reset of all Grasshopper UI settings on Mac?
Which specific file/folder in ~/Library/Application Support/ should I delete to force Grasshopper to regenerate its default factory settings?
Thank you so much for your help! I finally managed to resolve the issue.
Following your advice, I performed a hard reset by deleting the contents of the ~/Library/Application Support/McNeel/Rhinoceros/8.0/settings folder. I also manually cleared the Grasshopper XML configuration files (grasshopper_kernel.xml and grasshopper_gui.xml).
I think the “secret sauce” was emptying the Trash before restarting. It seems that without that step, the system or Rhino was somehow still “picking up” the old corrupted XML files. Once the Trash was empty and I restarted the machine, everything went back to normal.
The interface is now perfect. Thanks again for the support!
