John Brock replied to Norbert Geelen's discussion multi touch gestures in rhino5
"We made a few additions in V5 to begin exploration of using touch screens but didn't get very far. The gestures available are nearly as rich as mouse gestures we use heavily, like mouse-over for instance. Basically Rhino is not anywhere close…"

John Brock replied to tom curitiba's discussion Is there an equivalent funtion as the "match photo" from sketchup in Rhino 4?
"I don't use SketchUp but I think what you're looking for in V4 is the PerspectiveMatch command. Details are in the Help file article for it."

John Brock replied to Yianni - VJ - Glaux's discussion PictureFrame trim
"It was reassigned to a different developer at today's developer meeting and is scheduled for SR5. Since SR4 will be officially released soon, then when the fix is made it will show up in the service release candidate builds."
Tuesday
John Brock replied to Yianni - VJ - Glaux's discussion PictureFrame trim
"Yes, I can duplicate that by trimming a surface with a color texture assigned. In SR4, if I use PictureFrame to make the surface with the attached color texture and Trim that, it does not shrink. I've added a new defect to the tracking system.…"

John Brock replied to Yianni - VJ - Glaux's discussion PictureFrame trim
"The problem was not a trivial one and involved multiple developers to coordinate. The underlying problem is old PF objects will have this problem. While inconvenient, it should not be an onerous task to make a replacement PF using the same image…"

John Brock replied to GZ's discussion Pen view malfunction
"So what do you think this is? I'll ask again, what video card are you running? Are the drivers up to date? Are you up to date with important updates from Microsoft? If this is too informal, send a message to tech support, tech@mcneel.com JB"

John Brock replied to Yianni - VJ - Glaux's discussion PictureFrame trim
"Make a new PictureFrame surface using the same image file and it should work now. I've added a bug to the pile to see if we can fix old PictureFrames, but since they are so easy to make, the work-around is easy."

John Brock replied to Yianni - VJ - Glaux's discussion PictureFrame trim
"OK, this is getting weird. Thanks for the file If I trim your existing PictureFrame, the problem still shows up. If I make a new PictureFrame using your image or one of my images, then Trim it using your curve or a new curve, it does NOT shrink. I…"

John Brock replied to Wiona van Huyssteen's discussion All view ports are grey..no grids or axis visible. Please help!
"That's the problem. You're using an ancient video card (which is probably OK), but you're still running the Microsoft supplied setup drivers. They were only intended for Windows setup. Go to the AMD Web site and find current drivers…"

John Brock replied to Daniele Casarola's discussion Converting a surface, rebuild problem?

John Brock replied to GZ's discussion Pen view malfunction
"Assuming you have not tweaked the display mode settings, black viewport backgrounds are almost always the result of poor OpenaGL supoort with your current driver and graphics card, or running on an unsupported graphics card like the Intels. Vista…"

Hello, John.

 

Someone beat you to the chase, and the user I mentioned has been removed. (there was actually not a space between the first and last name, but it's all taken care of now)

 

Thanks,

K
