If there are hundreds of nested blocks that are not named perfectly, it’s impossible to find the nested blocks. I would proposed double-click on the nested block to access it as in Sketchup and AutoCAD? In rhino, I have to choose the item in a popup menu. Nested Blocks: Blocks are essential in an architectural workflow. Sometimes I end up having 20 of the same material. In rhino, for some reason materials get duplicated when applied to blocks or many objects. In Sketchup, When the material paint tool is applied to a block (without entering it) it paints everything within the block.ġb. In Rhino you have to double click on the block (nested blocks are a whole other can of worms), then select the object, then go to properties, then go-to material, then change the material.ġa.
The eyedropper that allows you to “get” the material of any object even if it’s within a block or nested block, it takes one click. With SketchUp there is an eyedropper tool that toggles between the “Paint tool”, it acts like match properties for materials, this is a really fast interface.
