Hi, When I export a closed polysurface geometry from Rhino 8 to SketchUp, it imports as surfaces but the edges are not showing up.

Hey @dcheng ,

Welcome to the community! Feel free to Introduce yourself :person_gesturing_ok: to the community if you want to! :grinning:

This discrepancy is expected because Rhino is a NURBS-based modeling tool, while SketchUp uses meshes (kinda). However, you can do some post-processing to adjust the model for your specific needs.

  • Use the Curic Deep Select plugin to select all the edges in the imported data.
  • Ensure that the “Soft” option is unchecked so the edges remain visible.
  • If necessary, you can also use the CleanUp plugin to remove any coplanar edges.
