This webinar explores the process of building and managing a Rhino plug-in with Python. Using an in-house tool developed at 3XN as a case study, we’ll walk through the development of a collaboration-focused plug-in that offers a centralized hub for sharing project visuals, Grasshopper scripts, and Rhino files across 3XN’s global offices. Designed for low maintenance, the plug-in is primarily an Eto form that connects to a webpage with user-uploaded content, integrating Rhino with the web.

We’ll share lessons learned, along with ‘hacky’ tips and tricks for developing a Rhino plug-in entirely in Python - covering both the old Rhino Script Compiler and the new Rhino Script Editor. Topics include packaging Python scripts into a Rhino plug-in, making Rhino react to events on a webpage within an Eto form, launching Rhino instances with specific files and GH scripts, tracking usage statistics, and automatically opening the plug-in window at Rhino startup.
