Refresh Shade

The RefreshShade command clears and regenerates the render mesh from selected objects so the shading refreshes.

Steps

  • Select surfaces or polysurfaces to re-mesh.
    Their render and analysis meshes are re-created.

Note

  • In Rhino 4 and earlier, editing surface control points would not cause the render meshes to update. The RefreshShade command can be used to update the render meshes. It is a rarely used command in Rhino 5 and later.

  • Use the RefreshShade command when objects have shading issues.
  • To delete render and analysis meshes from all objects in the model, use the ClearAllMeshes command.
  • To reduce the size of the model file, use the SaveAs command and check Save small.
