Hello!!!
I pass a lot of time to make filet on rhino 3d cad, and every time on corners I have to cut the 3 or 4 filets end and make a 2rails surf or other on the corner … I made a script to cut the end, and I’ll search for it create the surface automatically at the end…
The question is: is there someone how already made a script for this… If yes thank you… If no, I’ll search and post it ASAP!!

I am struggling to get set up. I have run into limitations scripting in a GH component, and in the Python script window in Rhino. I have downloaded PyCharm and got it running IronPython, but the instructions beyond that… those breadcrumbs have been scattered by time. I also tried downloading a few other IDEs, but they turned out to be dead ends as well.
Does anyone have a workflow that allows them to edit and debug python while being able to see what it means in a Rhino window? Or anything even close to that?
I cannot tell from what’s available online if RhinoInside for python is intended to help with this or not. Does anyone know?
Thanks in advance-

Hello there,
To Whom It May Concern:
I am working along with a book titled “Programming for Architects”, it uses
DrRacket as a frontend and Rhino or AutoCAD as a backend, right now I am on section 3.3 called
“Bi-Dimensional Geometric Modelling” so they ask the user to input this two lines in DrRacket’s interface:
#lang racket
(require (planet aml/rosetta))
(backend rhino)
Now, this doesn’t work, but I manage to get at least to the REPL using the following lines:
#lang racket
(require rosetta)
(backend rhino)
Like I said this seems to work to get to the REPL, now when I try the following commands:
(circle (pol 0 0) 4)
(circle (pol 4 (/ pi 4)) 2)
(circle (pol 6 (/ pi 4)) 1)
No matter which one I type, the error message is always the same:
Couldn’t find Rhinoceros
I know, I am very close but I am missing something, what do I need to do in order to write commands in DrRacket and
get Rhino to follow/obey those commands?
Any and all help will be really appreciated.
Thanks.

Hello Everybody
I am trying to create a script to batch export drawings as PDF files, and I’ve hit a wall. Any suggestions would be really helpful.
My goal is to automate exporting of 100+ files. I’ve looked at posts here (and a few other posts all day), but found only solutions with Layouts, using the GetPageViews() method.
page = sc.doc.Views.GetPageViews()
Here are my questions:
Is there a way to automatically arrange the Layout’s Detail Window (is that how I should call it?) to cover my modelspace, similar to Set Window feature in a Print Command?
I’ve been trying to use the _-Print command to set up all necessary settings. But, I end up with a pop-up window, that requires me to Manually enter the FileName as well as the location. Although, I see the prompt for entering a filename in the console, I can’t get it to work. Is it possible to override the pop-up box?
File1: 2021.01.11 - batchExportPDF.3dm (139.0 KB)
File2: 2021.01.11 - batchExportPDF.gh (3.8 KB)
def exportPDF(fileName):
# A4 Portrait
a4x = "210"
a4y = "297"
separator = "\\"
if platform.system() == "Darwin": separator = "/"
# Get current file directory
activeDocPath = str(os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(Rhino.RhinoDoc.ActiveDoc.Path)))
# Rhino _Macro
Rhino.RhinoApp.RunScript("_-Print Setup Destination PageSize _Enter" + a4x + " " + a4y + " Enter View ViewportArea Window " + a4x + "," + a4y + " 0,0 _Enter _Enter Go _Enter" , True)
# Trying to get this work
# Rhino.RhinoApp.RunScript("_-Print Setup Destination PageSize _Enter" + a4x + " " + a4y + " Enter View ViewportArea Window " + a4x + "," + a4y + " 0,0 _Enter _Enter Go _Enter" + activeDocPath + separator + fileName + ".pdf", True)

Hello Everybody,
is there a way to create script in Python Grasshopper which would work same as ‘Untrim Hole’ command in Rhino? I have some trimmed surfaces with holes in it, if I use Untrim in grasshopper, it would untrim also surface edges.
Thank you for your advise!
Cheers.

Hi!
I am a newbie and therefore still relatively inexperienced in terms of scripting and the possibilities.
I would like to pull up walls in 3D and connect them to a box, then copy it several times in all directions. So to say a big box from several small ones. Then I would have to be able to delete certain walls automatically, so that a kind of structure is created.
Kinda like this
Is this possible? Can anyone help me?

Hi there! I’ve been using this lovely little script to quickly change the colors of objects:
import rhinoscriptsyntax as rs
def QuickColour():
objects = rs.GetObjects("Pick objects for colour change", 0, None, True)
if objects is None: return
rs.EnableRedraw(False)
colour = rs.GetColor(rs.ObjectColor(objects[0]))
if colour is None:
rs.UnselectAllObjects()
rs.EnableRedraw(True)
return
else:
for object in objects:
rs.ObjectColor(object, colour)
rs.ObjectPrintColorSource(object, 2)
rs.UnselectAllObjects()
rs.EnableRedraw(True)
if __name__ == "__main__":
QuickColour()`Preformatted text`
The issue is that now the HSL sliders are missing the transparency option:
Compared to editing color the “normal” way:
Is there any way around this issue?

It is working in Rhino 5 and 6 but it is not in Rhino 7 (tested on 7.2.21012.11001, 12/01/2021). I get a black image.

Hello everyone,
what do you use python for in your daily workflows? I am looking for examples to give to my students at the TU Darmstadt.
I am teaching a course on the basics of computational design that aims to cover the core concepts behind this broad field such as combinatorial design, generative design and computational analysis. Here is the intro video to the course (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sCptKvK-9Hg).
The upcoming tutorial is about python scripting.
I plan to give a basic intro to the language but also want to illustrate the tutorial with a simple use case. I would like to avoid the most popular agents simulation example (flocking) as in my experience it had little practical relevance.
I have two questions to the community here:
My idea is to point my students to this very post so I hope for an interesting discussion and a diverse set of example use cases.

Hi,
I try to write the rhinoscript for the intersection of the mesh with the predefined plane resulting in the polyline/curve. I found this method “Mesh.CreateContourCurves Method (Mesh, Plane)” used for. But not in the list of the rhinoscript methods. The command “section” also works very well.
But I do not know how can it be applied in the rhinoscript. Can you help me pls ? Thanks.

Hi I have been searching like crazy but cannot figure it out by myself…
How can I write a script,
that selects one layer after another,
and then select the geometry on that layer by Material,
and then joins the surfaces by their Material.
I tired many things using rhinoscript, but didnt get to far…
It sound simple at first, but is quite tricky-
Any suggestions? Please
