Hello,
I would like to ask for an advice, I tried to download the Plug-In Lunchbox on “Food4Rhino” and I have a Macbook. Every time I downloaded it, it came up with the “installer format”.
I dropped it in the folder I used to put the Plug-ins for Grasshopper in but Grasshopper can´t work with it. Anybody an Idea?
Thank very much !
Lunchbox uses a stand alone installer. It does not go into the components folder. You install it the same way you do other software, run the installation file.
Hi,
I have the same problem, I do not get lunchbox installed. And I don’t find the plug-ins or grasshopper folder. The track you proposed does not work for me, unfortunately.
More ideas?
Thank you in advance.
Components folder is the wrong folder. The correct folder is called libraries. Only thing that should be in Components is native GH stuff.
You can get to the correct folder in Grasshopper by going to File>Special Folders>Components Folder which will bring you to the Libraries folder (even through the menu says Components, confusing naming mismatch)
Once downloaded, copy LunchBox.gha and LunchBoxML.gha to your /Library/Application Support/McNeel/Rhinoceros/6.0/Plug-ins/Grasshopper (b45a29b1-4343-4035-989e-044e8580d9cf)/Libraries folder.
Hi, so I’m currently trying to install this plug-in on my mac, and I followed the path you typed: /Library/Application Support/McNeel/Rhinoceros/6.0
However, once I enter the “6.0” folder, there’s no “Plug-ins” folder, so then there’s no “Grasshopper”. What should I do in this scenario?
I had the same issue as you.
Open GH and open Components Folder in File/Special Folders and it will automatically open the Libraries Folder, there just copy LunchBox.gha and LunchBoxML.gha. Close GH and Rhino and open it again and it should work.
This is a common mistake. macOS has a “global” Library (pictured in your screenshot above) and a “user” Library. You want the user library (your library).
Another way to get to these special folders (for Grasshopper purposes) is to navigate to File > Special Folders > Components Folder
