Importing from Rhino 5 OS X

[okedakor]

Hi there,

Does anyone has a solution for importing from Rhino 5 mac at this time?
An exported obj makes all objects as one, and the same if I export as rhino 4.0. I had a lot of tries but didn't find any solution.

Can someone help please?

Import the file directly. It works.

Hi, thanks for the reply!

it works, but I can't figure why some objects are missing. Not a whole layer or group of objects, but just a part here or there.. It shouldn't be about a complex geometry as a simple cylinder or cube will be missing.  Even if I import only the missing object, it doesn't work.. I even tried to replace the geometry by a new one in rhino and didn't work! Looks like a joke.

Try exploding all solids into surfaces. This did the trick for me.

Rhino 5 builds extrusions as simplified shapes that don't seem to show up in Keyshot. Just explode anything that shows as an 'extrusion" when you select it, rather than being called a "polysurface" in properties inspector, and it should import just fine.

You can turn that off in Rhino 5 so that it doesn't make those types of objects anymore. Took me a while to figure that one out!!
