Rhino User Webinar
Mon, April 7, 2025, 12:00 PM (CEST)
This webinar explores the process of building and managing a Rhino plugin with Python. Using an in-house tool developed at 3XN as a case study, we will walk through the development of a collaboration-focused plugin that offers a centralized hub for sharing project visuals, Grasshopper scripts, and Rhino files across 3XN’s global offices. Designed for low maintenance, the plugin is primarily an Eto form that connects to a webpage with user-uploaded content, integrating Rhino with the web.
We will share lessons learned, along with ‘hacky’ tips and tricks for developing a Rhino plugin entirely in Python—covering both the old Rhino Script Compiler and the new Rhino Script Editor. Topics include packaging Python scripts into a Rhino plugin, making Rhino react to events on a webpage within an Eto form, launching Rhino instances with specific files and Grasshopper scripts, tracking usage statistics, and automatically opening the plugin window at Rhino startup.
