For Owners of v4,5,6 who have not upgraded to v7 yet- We have all seen by now, V7 is the single biggest and most advanced update of Rhino since its creation. I’m in the process of compiling a list of v7 topics for which I’ll make videos. I’m curious, what are you reasons for not upgrading? Your…

That’s fine. I’ve used AutoCAD, Revit, Vectorworks, Sketch up etc and all pieces of software have their relative pros / cons. I recognise that Rhino is an outstanding piece of software with strong application for 3D modelling etc, intricate small designs etc. I’m able to model quite complex / histo…

[image] bradleyjonesassociat: Guidelines / construction lines - In Architecture at least, you you need construction lines for continual reference. Currently they only appear when a command is activated i.e. move etc. There needs to be an on/off toggle, show / hide guides. There also needs to be …

Re the guides, I know about the AddGuide command. My point is, as soon as I draw the guide, it disappears until I select MOVE or some other command with OSNAP on. My point is, I need the guides to stay on with a separate Show/Hide Guide command, whilst I’m drafting for visual reference. The option …

Here’s a simple elevation / plan example. I just need vertical guide lines to confirm I’ve related windows… as a toggle [Elevation Plan]

[image] bradleyjonesassociat: I need the guides to stay on with a separate Show/Hide Guide command, whilst I’m drafting for visual reference. The option to toggle ‘print guides’ also. ATM, guides cannot be toggled to persistent view, and only show up when a function would require them, like a…

Hi Brad - [image] bradleyjonesassociat: Dynamic blocks - the problem, every time I draw a door in 2D its likely to be a different width, wall thickness - particularly historic buildings. I’ve added this to the open request item RH-57711 . [image] bradleyjonesassociat: Layers - the proble…

Aren’t there Autodesk patents on dynamic blocks? Presumably a Rhino dyn block wouldn’t be compatible with autocad blocks. Which is a bit of shame, since there are like a gazillion out there. On the other hand, Autocad dynamic block authoring is cumbersome to put it nicely, there is probably a better…

Hi Mitch - Thanks for chiming in! [image] mich.platter: Another basic thing i might add from what is missing compared to autocad is a sheet set manager. For projects with lots of sheets thats important. Can you be specific about what is needed? We have the Layouts panel to “manage” the layo…

AutoCAD polylines can be thicker even in model viewport, not only in layout or during printing
