Model files
Drag any supported geometry file format from Windows Explorer, Rhino will:
| ● | Open the file. |
| ● | Import the file into the current model. |
| ● | Insert the file as a block, group, or geometry. |
| ● | Attach the file to the current worksession. |
Note: You can also start Rhino by dragging a text file with the .txt extension over a Rhino shortcut. This starts Rhino and runs the text file using the ReadCommandFile command.
Image files
Drag any supported image file type that makes textures (bmp, png, jpeg, hdr, exr).
Drag and drop on an object
| ● | If the object has a material assignment, the material diffuse texture is changed to the dragged texture. |
| ● | Of the object has no material assignment, a new material is created with the image as the texture in the diffuse slot. |
Drag and drop to a free space
| ● | A dialog box offers options. |
