New in Rhino 8
Rhino 8 is the most significant upgrade in our history. You can create organic shapes with our new SubD tools. Run Rhino and Grasshopper as a Revit® Add-On with Rhino.Inside.Revit. Use the robust QuadRemesh algorithm to create a beautiful quad mesh from NURBS geometry or meshes. With this release, we’ve unlocked completely new modeling workflows and refined many steadfast features. These are the highlights…
ShrinkWrap creates a watertight mesh around open or closed meshes, NURBS geometry, SubD, and point clouds.
ShrinkWrap is ideal for creating:
- Meshes for 3D printing.
- A solid union mesh from multiple objects.
- A solid mesh from 3D scan data fragments.
- Meshes without internal self-intersections.
- Offset meshes for shelling.
- Meshes from point clouds when reverse engineering.
- Valid closed meshes from broken or often hard-to-repair geometry.
SubD
For designers who need to explore organic shapes quickly, SubD is a new geometry type that can create editable, highly accurate shapes. Unlike other geometry types, SubD combines free-form accuracy while still allowing quick editing.
Rhino.Inside.Revit
Rhino.Inside.Revit brings the power of Rhino and Grasshopper to the Autodesk Revit® environment.
QuadRemesh
Quickly create a quad mesh from existing surfaces, solids, meshes, or SubDs—ideal for rendering, animation, CFD, FEA, and reverse-engineering.
Presentation
In Rhino 7, we’ve improved the presentation tools, streamlining the workflow with a major update to the Rhino Render engine, so the same look you get in your Raytraced viewport can be rendered without any changes. We’ve added support for PBR materials, a LayerBook command, and more…
Physically Based Rendering Materials are beautiful and easy to use.
Denoisers produce high-quality renderings in a fraction of the time.
Create self-lit objects commonly found in consumer electronics.
Specifies how lighting intensity changes when light travels in the scene.
Present ideas quickly with LayerBook.
Create attractive 2D representations in a few steps.
Rhino Refined
In Rhino 7, we’ve fixed hundreds of bugs, but we’ve also added workflow improvements like Named Selections, Mold Making tools, a Single-Line font for engraving, and improved interoperation with third-party file formats…
Quickly save and restore previously selected objects
For mold makers and tool designers, Rhino’s makes the model-test-revise …
Improve the speed and quality of CNC engravings.
In Rhino 7, we've improved fidelity for existing formats and support for …
Display
We are always refining Rhino’s display pipeline to keep up with modern graphics hardware. In Rhino 7, some models will display significantly faster on both Windows and Mac. We’ve also made several refinements to the Display Modes to make them even more eye-popping while you work…
Documentation
Modeling is just one part of the design process; you also need to show how to build what is on the screen. We’ve improved many parts of the documentation workflow while also focusing on the more graphically-rich illustration tools like transparency and gradient hatches…
Create attractive 2D representations in a few steps.
Vertical panel makes it easier to manage models with many drawings.
Text fields are text formulas that can dynamically update.
Grasshopper
Grasshopper seems to be everywhere lately. As usual, we’re having a hard time keeping up (you might even see that familiar canvas in other applications). In Rhino 7, we’ve added some new components, but we’ve also made it easier to turn your programs into plugins…
Turn your Grasshopper definitions into Rhino commands.
Quickly find where your objects occupy the same space.
Placeholder component for missing plugins.
Rhino 7 brings major improvements to our free SDKs, with API refinements, better documentation, and some major new features that broaden and deepen the foundations of the geometry development platform…
Discover, install, and manage your resources.
Read and write rhino 3dm files from nearly anywhere.
Access Rhino and Grasshopper within other Windows applications
Run Rhino and Grasshopper within Revit.
APIs for SubD, QuadRemesh, PBR Materials, and much more...
