"Hi John,
Thanks for pointing these 2 point edit option out. They are an improvement on Rhino 4 already.

"Hi,
I have found a slightly different issue when importing DWG files, which is also causing me a lot of hassles:
The text positions on a drawing, when opened in Rhino, shift down slightly. In a drawing with lots of tables, this becomes a serious…"

"Hi Shawn,
Happy that you found the SelLinetype script useful.
As the description says on github, this is "a plethora of RhinoScript samples."
Information on scripting is available here: http://wiki.mcneel.com/developer/rhinoscript

"I am still having a similar issue as described by Jacek above. I am using version 5.1.2012.524.
When I export selected to dwg (using Default options, and various others options I have tried), I can open the dwg file in AutoCAD, however only a…"

"Thanks for advice above. The SelLinetype function works great and is saving me loads of time!
There are a number of other very useful functions you have in that .zip download. However, I cant seem to get the other .rvb files to load, either by…"
Mary Ann Fugier replied to Shawn de Villiers's discussion Select by Linetype
