Hi Michael ...

And if one has Rhino 4 there is a $95 plug-in for that. But a MoI file has to be sent to Rhino 4 and 'saved' for it to work properly.
It does make sending 3d MoI files pretty fluid and accurate that way ... layers can be turned on and off at will to indicate construction details.

Simlab is a good alternate, too, and I gather that the Sketchup one works though I have not tried it.

I recently had a client download the non expiry version of MoI and sent him the MoI 3dm ... worked like a charm with the advantage of hidden lines on or off.

Maybe by version 5 or so ??

cheers,
eric

Hi eric,

> Maybe by version 5 or so ??

Maybe something like that... But it also may fit better with a different company offering it by some plug-in mechanism in MoI same as what you are talking about for Rhino.

Eventually I want to support plug-in extensions to MoI developed by other companies, but it's something that brings along a lot of extra support burden for me so it is not an area that I can really focus on while there are still more core modeling features to implement first.
