Congratulations to McNeel on the monumental release of Rhino 7! Thank you to all the developers for your hard work. Here’s a list of what I would like to see the devs focus on for the next WIP. Items listed in no particular order. Advanced Clipping. Exclude objects/selective clipping. Rhino users…

I fully agree with you, the reason I said mcNeel won’t copy 1:1 is because that’s what they never do (in many cases I’d say unfortunately).

a couple of things to start with: Instead of having to enter a ‘radius’ (which after you have entered it, you no longer can see) I would like to see how much influence is active on the object I am transforming, preferably with some sort of visual overlay. The way it is implemented now is not worki…

this seems appropriate for a program famous for grasshopper to have that:P

[image] Gijs: I would like to see how much influence is active on the object I am transforming, preferably with some sort of visual overlay. If you select a sub-object (Ctrl+Shift+Click) before running the SoftTransform command, the SoftTransform will display a sphere of influence. The sphere…

[image] Gijs: And then when it is enabled I have to remember it’s on +1. I don’t make this mistake any more but did to begin with. No idea why a message box isn’t used like with OneView. Or for it to just be in the bottom. It seems like it very logically belongs there, and from there you woul…

Hi All, I would like to start saying thanks to Rhino and its developers for being what it is: a powerful software backed by a strong and active community. No way to go for yearly updates / subscription fees like the others do. I work in the marine industry, where Rhino is a sort of “unofficial” s…

[image] luca4: Layout detail of any shape It was introduced in Rhino 6 as solid white hatch.

Yes, you are right! I’ ve seen this already in some post but it’s actually in Rhino help here . I consider it anyway more like a workaround than a real command. Not so straightforward if there are many details in your layout. Thanks anyway for the hint!

It is a workaround and is not a true implementation of non-rectangular details.

I’m glad you asked:

Soft-edit / proportional editing tutorial? Rhino for Windows

Specifically, I’m looking for tutorials on how to modify non-symmetrical, non-geometric shapes (because I found some of those, and they’re edge cases that’s useless to me, as I do free-form surface modeling). Does anyone know of any? Is it possible to use any soft/proportional editing in Rhino with a view based drag modification? UVN directional modification? Only affect a certain control point selection? Can you soft-edit something that’s matched with history (like tweak G2 rows of control po…

How to smooth out a complex surface? Rhino for Windows

I’m cleaning up a file and I just came across something that I don’t know how to do in Rhino: [bild] Now, in Alias I know at least two different methods on how to deal with this without re-doing the surface, but either that’s not available in Rhino or too crudely implemented in Rhino. So, anyone have any tips? smooth-blending.3dm (120.3 KB) (PS. Yes, I realize the blend trim is horribly ugly/potentially wrong and I should re-do and re-trim the entire surface, but I’m interested in this spec…

SoftEditSrf DirConstraint=SrfNormal only takes initial point into account? Rhino for Windows

Look at this result: [image] Doesn’t it appear as if it only took the surface normal of the initial control point into account, and just moved all other control points according to that normal, instead of the normal at each control point? Is what I’m seeing a bug or what is the explanation for this?

SoftEditSrf - don't try it on dense (high point count) surfaces Rhino for Windows

While we’re on the topic of high point count soft surface editing, a falloff tweak that could be done after the initial transform was completed would be ideal as well… [image] [image] Right now, I’m having a real difficulty getting anything in between here… Also, a preview in the form of the actual control points moving rather than the surface would also be very helpful to me in this situation. (Ideally, as I’ve mentioned in other threads, It would be great to specify number of control po…

Add Soft Selection to Rhino 7? Serengeti (Rhino WIP)

HI all Adding this command would be very effective, of course, such as softmove and cage edite, but this is a soft selection command with manually adjustable mesh and subd object settings. Very effective this recipe !!!

Please add "DistanceType" to "Soft Edit Surface" Rhino for Windows

Soft edit surface currently has a U distance and a V distance parameter, which both apparently are in the document’s units. This is bad if you are attempt to soft edit a surface that has a G1/G2/G3 continuity applied to it, because you might accidentally move and ruin that. A better solution would be to rather than choosing a distance in units, instead choose a distance in number of control points. Like, a U distance of 2, would be 2 control points on the hull, regardless of how far apart the…

Soft-edit surface snaps to control point? Rhino for Windows

One (of numerous) gripes I have with the SoftEditSrf command is that you can’t specify the exact number of control points in either direction, rather the distance you enter is in the world units… So, imagine my surprise when I finally thought I’d try to wrestle some snese out of this very obtuse command, and saw this: [snap] Why on earth does the base point snap to a control point??? Since the distance is in world units, it makes absolutely zero sense to me to force the base point to snap to…
