Hello can you help me? I am trying to design some buildings on a hillside.
The hillside was created as a polysurface with the patch command.
I want to put some buildings on the hill. So what is the best way to do this? obviously the hillside will have to be terraced into flat planes to take the buildings.
I thought I could draw the building in plan form using curves. Then use Project command onto surface. Then what to do? I surely need to cut out the projected plan on the poly surface. And then draw a flat surface.
So I have tried trim, split and split using isocurve to cut hole in polysurface. None seems to work.
What would be the best approach to this?
Hello I am working on a urban design project and I plan to rebuild the hillside using contours.
I am trying build off the plan. Here I show two images one with the model set to wireframe and one rendered.
The 2d drawing which the 3d model is based on is only partly visible in the rendered version. Why is that ? I don’t think I am so absent mined that I created some sort of object and left it there obscuring the view. Using select command I cannot find any object hiding my view. So what is going wrong?
I also need to draw contours at the correct height. I realise that Rhino works on C planes not wcs and ucs like AutoCad. However if you do a a point command under analyse, the points x,y and z values are given as world coordinates and c plane coordinates.
Is it possible to turn on some sort of origin marker for these two coordinate systems like wcs and ucs in AutoCad?
I assume gumball does not do this because it always relocates to whatever object you have just selected
