Index of import/export file types

File types supported directly from the Rhino Save, SaveAs, Export, Import, Insert, and Worksession commands.

  • Enable AlwaysDisplayAllFiletypes in Advanced settings to reset the previously selected file type to Supported Files (*.*) when reading files, and the current version of Rhino 3D Models (*.3dm) when writing files.

  • The Import and Export dialogs only list the file formats that have their plug-ins enabled in Plug-ins options.
