"Hi Max - I do this all the time.
The best way i have found is to position the mesh objects in ISO view - then instead of converting to nurbs - just run the 'meshoutline' command (in the ISO view).
So you will end up with outlines of the…"

Enrico S. replied to Max Burgess's discussion 'Using People in an ISO with Make2D'"What kind of 2d drawing is?Orthogonal or perspective?
For the orthogonal work you can easily import 2D vector models in rhinoceros or illustrator.

Max Burgess posted a discussionUsing People in an ISO with Make2D
Hello, I am doing an ISO drawing and have so far been modelling in Rhino and then using the make2D then cleaning it up in Illustrator. (It's a line drawing) I want to start adding figures and vehicles to it but if I try and import models they are mesh, when I convert them to nurbs (apart from taking ages to 'make2D) they don't come out very well. Has anyone got an idea on how I might do it better? Many thanks! Max See More
Dan Anderson replied to Max Burgess's discussion 'Exporting to Illustrator'"another thing to consider: You may have the geometry in the AI file, but without stroke or fill properties assigned.
Open your exported geometry in Illustrator and select all.
assign a stroke weight and see if it show up.

Roger Paine replied to Max Burgess's discussion 'Exporting to Illustrator'"from Phil... after you zoom right out select all and you will see where it has landed - probably not on the artboard.
Alternatively, without zooming out, select all, cut, paste and it should appear on your artboard."
Phil Frank replied to Max Burgess's discussion 'Exporting to Illustrator'"Make sure you are in the TOP view, then zoom way out in Illustrator and they should be there, also if your curves were white in Rhino you may not see them in Illustrator."

Hello, I am trying to export curves to Illustrator but when I open the .ai in illustrator it is blank. It has the layers and object layers but nothing on the artboard. I am selecting the curves I want to export and I am using export selected. I am keeping the model 1mm to 1mm as it was designed with the correct dimensions. I have also make sure the cplane is by one of the objects. I have tried drawing a rectangle around it and selecting that also. Not sure what else to try. Thanks for help in…See More
Max Burgess replied to Max Burgess's discussion 'Rhino + Vray = no alpha through glass.'"Sorry.... that was an easy one. Didn't check 'affect alpha' in the materials options.
Thanks

Max Burgess replied to Max Burgess's discussion 'Importing other 3D models into my model.'"Thank you all.
The mesh settings is helping alot, I am trying some renders to see the difference. I will try the method of deleting the NURBS aswell.
As for Mac v PC, not entirely sure about 10 years behind, but I will agree that for…"
Tom Snyder replied to Max Burgess's discussion 'Importing other 3D models into my model.'"Bootcamp is a boot manager that allows you to boot into Windows on a MacPro.
It builds a windows partition and then installs Windows on that partition.

Kevin Quigley replied to Max Burgess's discussion 'Importing other 3D models into my model.'"Aside from the mesh settings, you can install Windows 7 64 bit under bootcamp, but Rhino 4 is only a 32 bit application anyway so you won't see any benefit. Alternatively try Rhino 5 beta on the Mac. It is 64 bit (I think)."

Max Burgess posted a discussionImporting other 3D models into my model.
Hello All, I am very new to Rhino and 3D modelling in general, but I have to do some visualisation work for Uni. I have been using some models from flyingarchitecture.com for furnishings. I understand that the models are saved to keep the file size down and so when I bring them into my model it has to rebuild the meshes. There are a couple of occasions where if I open the model on it's own and create meshes it is fine, but in my building windows runs out of ram. Annoyingly I have a mac pro…See More
