Installing Block Edit New - Rhino.Inside

Hi, I am running Rhino 8.10 on Windows and I’m struggling to get Block Edit New to work in that environment. It seems to work fine in the standalone environment. Has anyone had this issue before?

I’m wondering if this has anything to do with the instructions editing the Program Files but Rhino.Inside might be referring to roaming AppData??

I have the same issue, I tried the manual and automatic install method. I was actually updating the plugin from a earlier version that did work in both stand alone Rhino and Rhino Inside.

I found the solution, the developer had already a fix the developer posted.

The solution from this site:

You can replace BlockEditNew_V8.rhp in the load path with BlockEditNew.rhp from the zip package to resolve this issue.

Here are two solutions:* After closing Rhino, rename BlockEditNew.rhp to BlockEditNew_V8.rhp and replace the file in the load path
([YourUserFolder]\ AppData\ Roaming\ McNeel\ Rhinoceros\ BlockEditNew\ BlockEditNew_V8.rhp)

  • Alternatively, after closing Rhino, delete the BlockEditNew_V8.rhp file in this path and paste BlockEditNew.rhp. Then open Rhino and drag BlockEditNew.rhp from this path into the Rhino window.
    Option A does not modify the registry, while Option B is handled by Rhino for registry loading. Choose either one.

I just came across this solution yesterday at EOD. Wish I saw this a week ago. Thanks

Hi, @Japhy

I have a different problem than the others and I wonder if you can explain what’s going on. So installed the same plugin but everything loads fine. It’s when I try to use the plugin, particularly the command “Block Edit”. When I run Rhino 8 by itself the plugin works fine and the “Block Edit” command is listed in the commands

But when I use Rhino inside revit this happens -


As you can see, the “Block Edit” command is not listed. What’s happening?

What happens if you switch your NetVersion (copy shortcut method), guessing the Revit is using a different .net than the plugin was built on.

To start Rhino in .NET Framework once:

Caution: only recommended if you have a plug-in that doesn’t run in .NET Core.

  1. Create a new shortcut for Rhino in Windows
  2. Edit the shortcut
  3. Add command line argument /netfx

Hi, Japhy

Can you expound on this? I think I did what you recommended but it doesn’t seem to work.
