Hi, Rhino 8 changed from .NET framework to .NET Core. It means some plugins have to be updated. One of them is OpenNest. I took this chance to update and clean up the code. [image] There are a few points to mention. Operating system for OpenNest2: Windows 11 AnyCPU, Rhino version 8.8 or newer …

Hi Petras, could you please do a small update, with just plain components. I have a file with multiple instances and every time I open it, it will reconnect all snipped inputs where I changed them. It crashes my file and drives me a little crazy. Thanks a lot!

@phillip Please provide an example. And please make it clean.

Sure. Turned out it only happens if you remove the “sheet_font” input. Still it would be much cleaner without all inputs and comments. Here a screenshot of before saving and after re-opening. Thanks! 240911_opennestBugExample_pcr.gh (6.4 KB) [Screenshot 2024-09-11 152927] [Screenshot 2024-09-11 …

@phillip Do you know any McNeel thread that shows how to do this in code?

@Petras_Vestartas not the legal way but a decompiler allows you to see what isninside gha or dll I use it to see what was visible in my plugin andbthe least I can say everything is visible! dotPeek : Décompilateur .NET et navigateur d'assembly gratuit par JetBrains dotPeek est un outil…

Let’s then do it the old way :slight_smile: This is how people learn to code!
