How to use RhinoScript

October 18th, 2008 No comments

A brief tutorial by Thomas Anagnostou (Many useful scripts can be downloaded from his website.)

Usage:

1. Save the script *.rvb file to a directory. For example: “C:\Program Files\Rhinoceros 3.0\Scripts\GearGen.rvb”
2. Create a new alias (e.g. GearGen) with a macro. Example: !_-loadscript “C:\………….\gearGen.rvb”

(Include dash and underscore. Replace the dots with your own directory path. Use double quotes for the path)
3. To run the script, type the alias name in the command line.
