After using rhinoceros for so many years, have you found any useful but hidden functions? Let's sort them out today.

1. truncated plane

The position of this command in Rhino 6 is: [Work Window Configuration]]

.

.

This command allows us to easily look at the cross-sectional view of the product model, and it is convenient to move and select the position of the cross-sectional view.

.

.

After work, we will find that this command is still used more often. When the structural engineer sends out our engineering documents, he can easily see the internal structure diagram of the product and the wall thickness of the parts, which is very helpful for us to do ID design.




Tab key on 2. keyboard

In the process of drawing a straight line in rhinoceros, pressing the Tab key on the keyboard can help us fix the direction of the straight line. This command is also the most used command in modeling, which is very convenient to use.

3. Hand-painted Line Draft Style


Select [Pen Mode] in rhino view, and the product will become hand-painted.

This model can be used to make product descriptions or use this method in a portfolio.

.

.

The above background color is rhino's initial default background. We can also define the background color ourselves in the settings.

.

.

Change it to light gray

In addition, you can also use ps to change the background color later.

4. Create 2D Drawings


This command allows us to export the line drawing of each view from rhino.

In the [Dimension]-[2D Drawing] command

.

.

Pay attention to selecting the contour line of the scene. After clicking [OK], 2D drawings will be generated.

.

.

Select the generated 2D drawings, and in [File]-[Export Selected Objects], you can choose to save them in AI, CAD and other formats.

.

.

In addition to these commands, you also know which commands are more popular. You can leave a message.

Finally, you can pay attention to my personal public number "Xiaolong Design Shop" and share some design knowledge I have learned from my work. Welcome to exchange.
