Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

Limitations: Some trim edges might be distorted when importing certain Rhino parametric geometry.

  • Work Around 1: If you encounter such distortions, an optional Rhino 6 Plugin and Rhino 5 Plugin are provided to correct those distortions.
    The plugin provides two commands
    1, DS_Optimize: This would optimize the geometry in Rhino for transfer to Alias and other neutral formats.
    2, DS_SplitKinkyEdges: This would split the edges at c1 discontinuities.
  • Work Around 2: Save the file in Rhino as v2. The resulting files will not have distortions when imported to Alias
