Most of the time I only use Grasshopper.
Rhino is like a plugin to GH to me. Now I have an in-canvas viewport plug-in, the chance to open Rhino is limited to the initialization of the Rhino 3D software.
So I like to hide the Rhino window in the background.
The problem is if I minimize it, the Grasshopper window will get affected, and be minimized too. I like them to stay independent so that on the screen you can only see the GH and Rhino hiding in somewhere background.
Hope anybody has a solution.
I am not sure which category should I put this post. Maybe I can find a solution in the GH community.
You can’t put Rhino and Grasshopper on separate Task View pages. You could maybe add an old small monitor to your system and drag Rhino onto that. Or buy a really widescreen monitor and drag Rhino off to the side out of your eyeline!
I would move the solution to that code post to help others in the future.
Glad i could help, this I will always place into my script set to true so once opening a .gh file it will automatically minimize the parent rhino.
Do you also know about the settings in rhino (Rhino options under the general tab) here you can run a command apon launch. if you type Grasshopper in this box it will automatically open gh everytime you start an instance of rhino. Save loads of time.
