Rhino has been behaving strangely. The panels on the RH side of the screen keep coming undocked.
I am trying to print a 28 page document (but Rhino is outputting a splodgy mess, so I am trying to trouble shoot by adjusting linewidths etc)
It crashed, and now ALL text on all Rhino documents I open has completely disappeared !!
I tried to contact support but it is 2:30 pm in the UK and they have closed for the day
Please help
Thanks
edit : it seems to be linked to the template layout file that I use for all of my drawings.
I did not realise that all documents were linked via the layout ?
In other words I have a template file… within it are a number of premade templates (c/w drawing titles)
I have used it to create all of the drawings on my current contract.
That seems to have become corrupted and now ALL of my drawings (from months and months) don’t display ?!
How is that possible ?
I’m now opening up old template files… they are ALL behaving in the same way…
All layouts on all drawings are not working and not displaying text
edit : no i have found one that works (out of many)
Thank you

I received your files, everything opened and printed OK. I do see some lag in populating the text properties panel on the first try, but I don’t have the Chapman Condensed font installed.
Copy layout working as expected, as is copying text from layout to layout.
Sending you a copy of the pdf to see if there’s text missing.
Thank you yes, I am just compiling an email.
It seems to work fine in the print out you have sent…
I just downloaded Rhino 8 WIP and the file opens fine on there as well (so I have a workaround)
… But the file is still ‘broken’ on Rhino 7 for me
I think it must be related to ‘views’ used. That woudl make sense as these are common to layouts even when the layout files are not… I’ll keep seeing if I can get it to work…albeit in Arial (and wireframe)
Is there a way to copy the ‘view settings’ from Rhino 7 to 8 ? Are the config files stored in a document .ini file or something ? edit : sorry it’s in the ‘dsiplay modes’ section, where there is import/export . I’d forgotten
Yes, thanks. I am in the process of exporting all of them from Rhino 7 and into Rhino 8
Rhino 8 seems to be working fine.
Rhino 7 is still ‘broken’
Is there a command in Rhino to ‘rescan font library’ ?
My suspicion is that Rhino 7 has stopped recognising the font I am using and this is the issue.
What is annoying is that the text I hve entered isn’t even visible as a text box (empty to denote the missing/corrupt font) rather it is just omitted entirely so I can’t use an alternative font
I have the document working perfectly in (freshly installed) Rhino 8
… so I don’t want to be installing and uninstalling system fonts.
How can I ‘reset’ Rhino 7 without losing all my window layouts / toolbars / plugins / display modes ?
@ambrose_bill - are you printing via the Rhino PDF print driver or a different one? Also, does SelText get you anything? (i.e. the text may be there but tiny or something)
i Have Uninstalled and reinstalled the font in question (purchased from MyFont as a .otf file)
That has made no difference.
The font works fine when using the _TextObject command.
It is the _Text which is problematic.
It also woks fine if I create blank template…
So it seems as if there is an issue with all of my templates…
Attached is the output if I attempt to ‘rescue .3dm’ for the template file(s) in question RescueTemplateFile.txt (223.1 KB)
