How to use Grasshopper Tekla Live Link in Rhino 8 and Rhino 7?

Hi Zezza,

@Zezza

Is there any other workaround how to handle this, a bit inconvenient if an user does not have admin rights?

Here’s another user reporting that it seems to work on the latest Rhino 8.5:

Live link works but not as component Rhino 8. C#?

Thanks Sebastian! BTW, I Enjoyed you presentation with Kriss, it actually made me start working with Rhino and Tekla. Thank you so much for this. Anyway, last night after closing Rhino, it installed an update so now I have Rhino 8.5.24072. And now the component works!. I do have this error when loading the component for the first time in Tekla. [image] after that, a window pops up from Tekla to report the incident. Once I closed it, Tekla stops responding for a few seconds and then everythi…

So maybe give 8.5 a try?

I also added a Rhino version selector to the latest GH component release that you can use if you have Rhino 7 installed and prefer to use that

Remeber to uninstall the old one first from the Extension Manager, and set the version before loading a definition.

@Zezza

Could it be that you run Rhino/Tekla with admin rights? And I, normally, do not use admin account to start programms?

No, there shouldn’t be any elevated rights, so don’t think that’s the difference. Might be other installs registering competing dlls with the system that somehow gets used instead, but that’s hard to pinpoint (at least for me ).

Cheers,
