A differnt interface and so as the icons and the commands. But by now you must have become pro. And very familiar with the look and feel of Rhino on machquies. Keep posting your master pieces.:):). Hi guys, is there a way in Rhino mac to display lineweights? I mean you can change the thickness in the layer. But is there a way to display the line weights while you are drawing?
Im trying to design a bent wire for a wire frame and some of the inside diameter of the bends need to be the same diameter as the wire so that i can essentially snap it into itself.

Thank you so much for this in depth response Patel Deepak, Im using a mac so its a little different. I think I was actually looking for the 'pipe' tool. I was confused thinking that a pipe couldn't be a solid with a cap.

Hi Nenov
When I have to do the same with a complex form I usually go through maya which can export an .ai file and works well with meshes!
In rhino I ll go through a combination of 'meshToNurb' and 'extract Wireframe' along with make2D

Maya is so complex.. I've tried the mesh to nurbs but rhino tells me it's too heavy for my computer.
I've tried also to export the thing directly from rhino to ai file but when i am openning the file in illustrator it's very laggy and it exports everything even the lines behind ..
I don't know what to do..

Maybe this will help!
You can print a vector style PDF which you ll be able to use in Illustrator

hope it works
Thanks but I already tried, the meshes are too heavy.. it's not so bad with vray.
