So start from "d projects>client>1234>1234 living room.3dm" then backup file is "1234 living room 20210424.3dm, etc.Īnd finally, remember the intermittent GPU freeze I was experiencing during Rhino render? Well, that has gone away with the recent Vray update, as well as W10, Nvidia updates. Then name the (backup) copies with the date? Should I start from (and continuing working in) a master file without the date, so I am always working from the same/original file. Then an asset sub-folder for items specific to that project D projects>client name>unique project number>assets>Įach Rhino file is named: unique project number description date.3dmĪ few times throughout the day, as I make major changes, I obsolete the file with a text note & save as "datea", so "d projects>client>1234>1234 living room 20210424.3dm" then "1234 living room 20210424a.3dm, etc. Organized like this: D Projects>client name>unique project number>all files related to this project I have 2 drives (both SSD 850 Samsung Pro) C O/S & all apps, D all working files. I always open Rhino files with File>open, and never double click the 3dm file.Īnother thought I had over the weekend, could file naming & storage have any impact? Nikoleta.garkova Thank you for the fast reply & testing on your end. We offer several courses that will help you improve efficiency and your overall ability in Rhino. If you need extra help, ArchiStar Academy is here to help. For 3D, because it already knows it's going to scale in all three axes, just type in 'scale', pick the origin point and type in "2" or what you want - it will adjust accordingly. You can either intuitively pick a point to scale or type in a dimension for accurate resizing. If you choose the vertical point, it will double that size. Type in 'scale 1D' Pick your origin point and type in scale factor "2" and it will imbed those factors. Choose a reference line, and move your mouse to dramatically scale the object If you want to scale by a factor and know the distance, simply select it. 3D scaling scales in all directions at once. Choose Scale 3D to scale in three directions Simply type "Scale" in the box to go directly to Scale 3D.The ultimate - 3 dimensional scaling. If you do the same in the vertical direction, it provides the same result. However, now it is Scaling in the X and Y directions. As in the 1D, you select your reference point. Select Scale 2D to scale in two directions To scale in 2D, choose your object and pick your origin point. It now that will be exactly scaled to your measurements. You can reference the vertical line and increase it to your desired measurement. You can specify either a reference point or you can type in a factor. And now it’s ready to stretch just in one direction. You can click this line to reference this edge. You will need to provide a reference line or an origin point. This will scale non-uniformly in one direction only. Select the 'Scale 1D' option to scale an object in one direction. Here are the instructions to start with Scale 1D:ġ.

Rhino offers three ways to scale an object or curves.

Use this easy step-by-step guide and in just a few minutes you can have an object scaled to perfectly fit in your design.Įven if you don’t know much about the software, you can do this.įollow these simple and easy steps to make your designs realistic.
