Overview

In Rhino 7 for Windows, display modes are even faster & the new real-time display mode allows you to visualize your designs and apply 100’s of photo-realistic materials to your models. Grasshopper – the wildly popular visual programming language, is no longer beta; it’s a stable development environment. Many commands have been rewritten and merged into single commands. These are the highlights…

Presentation

Presentation is key: during nearly every phase of design, you need to communicate, get “buy-in” from clients, customers, collaborators, etc. Rhino 6 has been improved with the aim of helping you present your work: be it “quick and dirty” or “high-res glossy.” With major changes to rendering, materials, & real-time photo-realistic display with acceleration from your computer video card. Open the material library panel, and browse or search through hundreds of pre-designed, textured materials, ready to drag and drop right onto your models. The new rendered viewport shows you how they will look in real-time. It’s now easier and faster to present, discuss, make decisions, and iterate… More Info…

Display

Rhino’s new display is faster, more stable, and uses features found on modern graphics hardware, like GPU sensitive shaders and memory optimizations. This results in fewer video-specific display glitches for more consistent, beautiful, and frequent frames…even with large models. In some conditions, display speed can be up to 300% faster…  More Info…

Documentation

Modeling is just one part of the design process; you also need to show how to build what is on the screen. Many parts of the documentation workflow have been refined, from a completely reworked annotation-style interface, to better DWG support, and RichText throughout. It’s now easier to convey accurately and clearly the what and the how of your design… More Info…

Make2D

Make2D has been completely rewritten to provide faster, better, cleaner, more customizable, results. Clipping planes are now supported and clipping plane intersections are calculated…More Info…

Rhino Refinements

Small quirks add up to painful paper-cuts over the course of a prolonged modeling session. Users can now extrude using the new Gumball in Rhino 6. FilletEdge fillets are now editable, and edibility persists on copies of filleted polysurfaces. In Rhino 7, hundreds of minor bugs have been fixed, and many disparate – but similar commands – have been consolidated into single commands, making Rhino much more refined… More Info…

Grasshopper

The long beta period is over: Grasshopper, the world’s most beautiful programming language, is now a full-fledged part of Rhino. Grasshopper has been used in some of the most ambitious design projects of the past decade and – like Rhino – has become a development platform in its own right. Grasshopper provides the solid foundation for many incredible third-party components ranging from physics simulation to robotic control.  More Info…

Licensing & Administration

Rhino 7 is easier to install, license, and configure. There’s a great new option to license Rhino using the Cloud Zoo allowing organisations with multiple licences to share licences across Windows and MAC computers. Please check out the new System Requirements as well. More Info…
