Maximum amount of rhino layouts? Is there a limit?

[Stephanie_White]

Hello there,

I’ve recently been setting up multiple rhino layouts that include detailed views and attribute user text embedded in the block sheet template. At the moment I have 34 layouts but not sure if there is a maximum amount of layouts you can add to a file. I need to eventually create 300 layouts, can it handle 300? Trying to avoid having multiple files and would ideally to have everything saved in one file. The model at the moment is 318,500 KB but will be increasing in size as I add more blocks into the model space. Many thanks

Hi Stephanie -

@Stephanie_White

At the moment I have 34 layouts but not sure if there is a maximum amount of layouts you can add to a file.

There is no hard-coded cap on the number of layouts that I’m aware about.
In this thread, a user had 1356 layouts:

Parametric layouts from Grasshopper

Hello I need to export about 1300 drawings, each A4 PDF in scale, contains some baked geometry. I was trying to use FabTools for Grasshopper but it’s crashing my Rhino as it’s not suitable for Rhino 6. Is there a way how to use RhinoScriptSyntax or some different workaround? Does anyone have an experience with that? How are you guys exporting data for fabrication if that requires piece-by-page layouts? Thanks

There’s a plug-in (for Rhino 5) to manage large amounts of layouts:
