StructDrawRhino features comprehensive commands to model members such as steel beams.

Can you find either the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Geometry Gym\Rhino3d or C:\Program Files (x86)\Rhinoceros 4.0\Plug-ins\SSI and then drag and drop the .rhp files over rhino application (or use plugin manager command)

Else do you see any error messages?

为什么还要发送信息啊,而且发不出去啊。指点一下!试用版本怎么也这么麻烦啊?

If you downloaded plugin and installed, please run the rhino command sdrZZLicenseRequest

If you have problems installing, please send me a message and I'll advise.

Hi, I'm a student at Pratt & just downloaded this plug in. Wondering how to activate it- it said to request an evaluation form but I thought that was just for commercial use? my email is lschrage@pratt.edu- please let me know how to get this working. Thanks!

Hi,

I provide free access to my tools for academic use. Just run the prompted rhino command to request a license.

Cheers,

Jon

这款软件是收费的吗??怎么样付费啊?

I charge commercial users for my developments to enable me to support and develop them full time.

There is a free evaluation period (install and run the rhino command sdrZZLicenseRequest) and I provide access free to students and teachers.

Cheers,

Jon

If you're using Rhino v5, the latest release now includes utilization of Rhino v5 extrusions, for some performance bench marking, refer http://geometrygym.blogspot.com/2011/06/rhino-v5-extrusions-geomgym-plug...

Hi, sounds interesting. Do you have a manual and sample files?

GeometryGym's picture

A manual is work in progress, but you'll find lots of samples at http://geometrygym.blogspot.com I'm more than happy to provide more relevant to the modelling tasks you have. Send through suggestions and ideas.

Hi, im a student but im not sure how to install this on my rhino, also how do i update my status as a student?

GeometryGym's picture

Sorry, I've only just seen these comments now.

Installation instructions are outlined on the geometry gym forum here:
http://www.grasshopper3d.com/group/geometrygym/forum/topics/installing-g...

The initial license request is the same for all, I'll advise in the reply about proof of student status after evaluation.
