Rhino V5 Wip, shows new ui design

nnnaaarrr — Sat, 31 Jul 2010 08:49:48 +0000

It seems that Mcneel started testing a new user interface with the cool tab function. It allows you to easily intergrate your most used tools into Tabs.

Add tabs:

Add tabs

Usage:

If you want to switch to new ui, just type the command: testfancytoolbars and open your default toolbar layout(*.tb) or the file (*.rui) of Automatic Generation. The program will convert the toolbars you tick into tabs Automatic, You can also drag other toolbars whatever you want to insert an existing tab.

Other Commands:

TestsetPascalColors

TestSetdrawColors

LayoutWorkspace

testFancyToolBars

TestToolbarOptions

TestsetViewportBackground

You can even change the tab/background/… colors to match your taste.

Do you have some ideas about this new user interface? For me, it looks ok.

a nurbs circle

nnnaaarrr — Sun, 27 Dec 2009 14:43:04 +0000

When i import 3d file created by catia to rhino, I find:

A degree 5 circle (you can know how to create this circle by the picture below), It’s funy though less use in actual application.

A rhino nurbs circle are degree 2:

A: a quarter circle weight=sin(90/2)°

you can take 4 quarter circular arcs and piece them together to make a full circle as shown below.

B: 1/3 of a circle weight=sin(60/2)°

C: weight=sin(*) You can define a circular arc using a regular polygon of n sides.

update:

Leonardo: Is there a way to “join” the circular arcs to obtain a valid circle? I’ve tried with join command but I have a generic Nurbs curve.
