How do I always switch to wireframe when moving the view?

Hello,

Is it possible to tell Rhino to always switch to wired mode to avoid waiting for it to understand that the the board can’t handle?

Hi -

In Rhino Options -> View -> Dynamic redraw, change Frames per second to, e.g., 100.

Thanks Vim, that helps!
I tried with different values but there is still a lag.
here I am on 1000, but 100 does the same thing.
Is it possible to switch directly to wired mode without lag?

You can also try BBox display in Display settings, here that kicks in right away:

Ah oui!!!
It’s exactly what I expected, and easy to set!
Thank you @Gijs

Just one thing.
I was looking for this option because I am testing Twinmotion. Currently, he cannot create hedges by following a path. You must do this in the 3D editor.
I put 4 hedges in Rhino and the performance dropped immediately, (I’m going to have 30 or 40 on the project)
Since this is to prepare the model for rendering, I also enabled Render mode. Obviously the performances are all the less good.

I don’t see why the activation is done on the pan/rotation but not on the zoom?

I don’t see that here.

As for the hedges: which render engine are you going to use?

Ah! I put the settings back to default, but the BBoxes don’t show up on zoom for me. I will find out why.

Twinmotion

Strange thing the BBoxes appear with Ctrl+LBM but not with the wheel

I don’t know TwinMotion very well, but when I used it, I have painted my foliage in there. In Vray I’d use proxies, not sure if that can be done in Twinmotion too.

Finally, it’s normal, the button zooms step by step and Rhino refreshes the view step by step which gives me the impression that it doesn’t work…

Well for an answer about Twinmotion.
It currently cannot repeat objects along a path (only for car or character travel, but nothing repeatable with a space of 0 between each instance)
for the foliage painting it only takes the faces oriented upwards, which means that for a rectangular block representing the hedge, the side face is not painted.
