Analyzing surface direction - Rhino Tutorial
From the course: Learning Rhino 6 for Mac
Analyzing surface direction
- [Instructor] Many times when we're working in Rhino for Mac, we'll need to measure certain properties of a surface object, like the direction, the curvature, or the continuity between two surfaces. In this video, we'll take a look at the direction of some surfaces. And to help us out, I've got the exercise file surface-direction.3dm open. And you can see here, we've just got three pairs of surfaces. So they're not joined together. And we'll do some analysis to see what's going on with their surfaces. So in Rhino, surfaces have a specific front and a back. And so we can see which is which by using the Direction command. And we can get to that under the Analyze menu. So I'll click to activate Direction. And let's go ahead and select some objects. And I'll just do a window selection over everything and click Done. So you can see now Rhino's labeling my surfaces with all these different arrows. And those are…
