        looks like it's a SU import plugin that imports live updates from Rhino...

        doesn't appear to be a two way street...

        learn from the mistakes of others, you may not live long enough to make them all yourself...

          i don't get it

          you have to use rhino & grasshopper anyway so why wouldn't you just do everything in rhino in the first place.. then export out to sketchup when you're done if need be.
          ?

          (like- what's the reasoning/advantage with updating the sketchup model after every rhino operation?)

              I have to dito Jeff.

              If I remember correctly there was a topic where Tig and Thomthom helped this guy making the .rb import geometry with the help of a timer. So that's how it works (?).

              Maybe there are some extra precautions for getting viable geometry in Sketchup,
              and positioning the geometry ?

              Also if it does becomes a "2 way street", this plugin could be very useful for Rhino-users,
              importing Sketchup geometry on the fly..

              I don't own Rhino so I can't test...

              FYI. I'm still working on a Sketchup integrated solution on a daily basis. πŸ˜„
              Nothing fancy as Grasshopper of course..
              (no timetable set)

                I believe the demo lets you save a rhino project 15 times but the Grasshopper plugin saves grasshopper "scripts" in its own file format apart from those rhino saves so you can test it.
