Surface/mat/render ID Display Mode or renderer in rhino6?

Not by default but I set up the attached mode that you can import into Options>Display Modes. It uses the layer color.

Dear Brian,
I can’t seem to get the .ini to install on Rhino 6 for Mac.
Any thoughts?
Have tested other custom display modes and they install OK?

Hi Hugh - we have an open bug report for that issue: apparently importing a display mode from a Windows version does not work on the Mac - RH-49144.

Dear Brian
could you provide a Mac Version of your “FlatColor.ini”?
would be very helpful…
Thank you
Jonas

@Jonas_H Sure, try this one… Flat Color-macOS.ini (6.5 KB)
