Hi Michael,

Thanks for the explanation. Yes, save-open works fine. Not as fast as I am used to (I actually go a lot back and forth between Rhino and MoI), but that's fine.

I this example, I created a cube, duplicated the edges, threw away the cube, rotated in 3d, adjusted cplane using the script and then project to cplane. Now I have the lines flat on the cplane, and that I can export the DXF for laser engraving.

But the script I have found only gets me close to that, none of the other viewports are identical to the 3d. Any tip?

Thanks a bunch,
Ditto

I'm not sure I understand properly, but do you mean you want to get a 2D result that has perspective in it like you see in the 3D viewport there?

If so you can't use the Project to the cplane to do that - projection on to a plane is a different kind of projection than a perspective projection.

But you can use the DXF output itself to generate that - instead of doing a project to cplane, save a DXF file and in the DXF output set the Projection view option to be "Projection view = 3D", then it will use the same projection you are seeing in the 3D view currently to generate the flattened output to the DXF file.
