Rhino 6 for Mac

Rhino Rhino for Mac
25

Hi there,

just following on from the above, I wondered whether there is a foreseeable timeframe for being able to open Rhino 6 files in Rhino for Mac?

I understand that a Rhino 6 Mac version is probably quite labour intensive, but now the Rhino 6 Windows is officially out, it would be super helpful not having to continuously export Rhino 5 versions of documents to make them cross platform.

Thanks!

I wouldn’t count on the RH5 version to ever be able to read RH6 files. The time involved in making such possible is way better spent to get the first WIP for 6 for Mac out.

My personal wishlist for Rhino 6 mac:

  • better and faster display when you open large dwg/dxf files. Sometimes it is so slow you cannot even pan/zoom (brandnew macbook)
  • better layout function with predefined paper sizes, Rhino shouls be able to open properly also layouts done in AutoCAD
  • hatch transparency
  • being able to order block list
  • being able to open dynamic blocks and chang values

Personally I think more and more users would like to finish their project in Rhino. Do all the 3d-modeling (where Rhino is really great), and then do the 2d documentation for the workshop and for the planning permissions.

Therefore in my opinion the functionality I was writing above would be extremely useful.
