Is there a way to get the surfaces to print? Also, if there is a way for me to save the file without having the save dialog pop up and having to click ok it would be helpful. Here is the script. Thanks!
I think it best for @stevebaer to chime in and tell if this is expected behaviour an/or how to make sure the
Rhino.Display.ViewCaptureSettings are capturing to the shaded mode.
The view in in shaded mode yet the PDF is created in wireframe.
John: As a test: What happend is you set the vie to rendered mode
In my experience with just normal printing (not via script) if the output in the print dialog is set to vector mode, a print to PDF will always be wireframe. You have to make sure the output is set to raster mode to get shaded surfaces. Maybe you need to do that script-wise as well…
Now that I mess with it more it appears to be something with the “save as” PDF function. If I do a normal “save as” and choose PDF then select the raster function it previews just fine but when I actually save it the surfaces are not there. If I turn on “Background Color” under “Visibility” then everything comes through.
