Note the options on OFFSET, distance and corner are the two most important for our operation. OFFSET rectangle 8” towards the interior of the rectangle. Select the object and use the window to change its properties. Make sure you drew the curve on the “plan” layer, if you draw an object on the wrong layer, you can change its properties with the “object properties” window, type PROPERTIES. Draw a 12’x12’ box, this is the outer edge of the building’s footprint. Also, set the “linetype” to dashed for the “construction lines” layer in the layers window. Set construction lines to another color that is easy to distinguish from the “plan” layer, we will use red. Rhino will start with six layers: “default” and “layer 01- 05.” Rename two layers as “construction lines” and “plan.” Set the “plan” layer to an easily visible line color, we will use black. Start by finding the layers window: type “layer” into command line, or find icon in toolbar, then organize layers. Additionally, right-clicking on the viewport name will bring up a dropdown menu with many useful options like viewport visibility styles and other options. Upon opening Rhino, you will see toolbars and four viewports, “top,” “front,” “perspective,” and “right.” Double-click on “top” to enter that view, double-clicking on the viewport name will allow you to navigate between viewports. Open Rhino5.0, choose “Large Objects: Inches”
Right-click is orbit when in 3-D, hold “shift” and right-click to pan. Options, layer names and other Rhino references are in quotations: “xxxxx” Look and you may find just what you are looking for! Use the command line! If you’re looking for a certain kind of functionality, just start typing things into the command line and a drop down will appear with all commands including that word. Commands can also be found in toolbar icons or drop-down menus. It is strongly recommended that you do this tutorial with two screens, one for a Rhino window and the other with the tutorial text and video.Īll Rhino commands are in ITALIC CAPS, these can all be input directly into the command line in the Rhino window. pdf of the tutorial text at the bottom of the page.
This tutorial will take approximately 1-1.5 hours. This tutorial is written for Rhino 5.0 (Windows).Ĭreated by John Greene Notes to Begin Tutorial:
