Visual Basic Scripting

Rhino supports Visual Basic scripts. Scripting languages allow loops, variable names, browsing for files, queries, and other

There is a plug-in for running VBScript scripts. Here are the commands to use:

LoadScript
RunScript
EditScript

The basic steps are:

1. Write a script function.

   Rhino VBScripts use the file extension .rvb.

2. Run the LoadScript command to load a script into memory.

3. Use the RunScript command to run the function name.

   Note: Dragging a .rvb file onto the Rhino window will load and run the script.
