Rhino to GDL import visual issue.

Hello,

 

I have several Rhino files that I am trying to bring into archicad25 as GDL objects. Each rhino file has one object.

When I open the 3dm file from Archicad (file-open-choose the 3dm file) the geometry and views from Rhino are there.

 

When I go (file-libraries-import-rhino file) i get a message the import was successful and is now a gdl object. I check the library it is there, but when I place it on a floor plan, nothing shows up, just a block dot. I open all layer and nothing. I select the black dot go to 3d view nothing there. Am I missing something?

Maybe your object is really far from the world's origin point in Rhino?

Hello Wlad222

Thanks for the tip, I had moved it to the origin in the 3d dwg and thought it would translate as is into the rhino. I removed it to the origin in rhino and dropped in Archicad and it worked. Thank you

One last thing, you need to explode the rhino before.
