Hi guys, I’m trying to create a duplicate of my front view so I’ll have 5 layouts.
2 fronts, 1 top, 1 perspective and 1 bottom. But I don’t know how.
Working on a pc you just click on the pointing down arrow besides the title of the layout and you will see a menu. But not the same in a Mac. Does anyone knows how. Thank you
Hi Luis -
On a Mac, you should be able to right-click the window title and get somewhat of the same menu.
Other than that, you can select the front view detail, run the Copy
command and place a copy somewhere else. You can also run the Detail
command and pick the Add
option.

Hi Wim.
It won’t give me the split option like in PC. I’m going to try the copy command. But I just realized that, I’m using the “evaluation” version of rhino. May be that is why?
Thank you for your input
Mac Rhino does not support custom view layouts. This is why the feature is not available on your Mac.
yep
it is different
thanks
Hi Steve.
Ok. Thank you
I will stop looking
Ok - I thought you were talking about details on a layout… Sorry.

Hi,
What’s the reason that Rhino Mac doesn’t support split viewports?
The only thing I can do is toggle 3 and 4 views, resize those windows by dragging window borders, and opening a floating view.
What I find handy in windows is the ability to split on the fly and create custom views!
Thanks!
Only because we haven’t had the chance to add the feature yet. This is a rather large chunk of Windows specific code that we need to figure out how to properly make work on Mac as well.
Thanks Steve
Hi @stevebaer
Are there any plans to bring Split Views to Rhino 8 for Mac in a future release? I really miss this feature and would love to see it added.
Thanks,
Tom
Isn’t the UI for v8 the same now in Windows and Mac?
Hi Tom -
As Steve wrote in November 2022 in this thread, this requires changes to a large part of the code and is a big project. We are currently nailing down the projects that we are taking up for Rhino 9, and this doesn’t appear to be one of those.

… This is currently on the “Future” list.
Not completely, no.
