Lands Design automatically launching Grasshopper

Hello,

I downloaded Lands Design latest version 5.8.2.8795 - now running in evaluation period, my company should have a licence somewhere but I cannot find it :sweat_smile:

Anyway, the problem is that Grasshopper is automatically launched everytime Rhino starts, which is rather annoying. I can’t find a way to disable that in the options and I found an old post on the forum mentionning this behaviour was supposed to be fixed since 5.4…

Any tips ?

Hi @magicteddy,

I am testing it and having just Lands Design installed, Grasshopper only loads when I click on the Grasshopper icon. Do you have VisualARQ installed as well?

Hi,

No, only LD.
It loads Grasshopper as soon as I launch a command in Rhino (any command, really).

I have this at the opening of Rhino. Related maybe ?

Hi @magicteddy,

Loading looks fine. Grasshopper shouldn’t load before clicking on the Grasshopper icon. We need to check some points:

  • Does this happen having Lands Design disabled? You can disable Lands Design going to the ā€œRhino Optionsā€ > ā€œPlug-insā€ > ā€œPlug-ins that do not ship with Rhinoā€ and unchecking the ā€œEnabledā€ checkbox.

  • Do you have other Rhino plug-ins installed? Maybe one of them is causing this problem. You can check it by disabling them one at a time in the same way I explained before.

Hi,

I have found something rather… amusing.
If I uncheck Tibidabo and recheck it, at the next restart of Rhino I don’t have any message in the command line. In this case GH does not launch.
Then at the next restart I have the message and GH starts after any command is performed in Rhino.
I’ve disabled all other 3rd parties.

Hi @magicteddy, try to disable ā€œLands Designā€ and ā€œTibidaboā€ plugins, as mentioned by Alfonso. Because in the video you are only unchecking ā€œTibidaboā€, and you are checking it again before closing Rhino, so nothing actually changes.
Let us know if the problem persists when Lands Design is not loaded.

Yes, I did try that already. Sorry I was unclear.
When unchecking both and starting Rhino there is no Grasshopper loading, as expected.
When both are checked, with or without 3rd parties, GH loads unexpectedly.
I tested several configurations and ended up with the behaviour shown in the video above which I find quite strange.

Hi @magicteddy,

Are you available for a zoom meeting during this week? If you want, we can meet to find a solution for this problem.
