Using rhinoscriptsyntax in Jupyter Notebook

Surfaces seems to contain a BrepSurfaceList in your case. So you will first have to get a surface out of that list.

For example

geometry.Surfaces[0].NormalAt(0, 0)

Hi @sunny.ying,

If you were in Rhino, you could do something like this:

import Rhino

def test(filename):
    model = Rhino.FileIO.File3dm.Read(filename)
    if not model:
        return
        
    for obj in model.Objects:
        name = obj.Attributes.Name
        if not ('z' in name):
            continue
            
        if not isinstance(obj.Geometry, Rhino.Geometry.Brep):
            continue
        
        brep = obj.Geometry
        srf = brep.Surfaces[0]
        du = srf.Domain(0)
        dv = srf.Domain(1)
        print(srf.NormalAt(du.Min, dv.Min))
        
        
test("c:\\users\\dale\\desktop\\test.3dm")

I have not tried this with CPython.
