Rhinoceros, also known as Rhino or Rhino3D, is a 3D CAD modeling software package that enables you to accurately model your designs ready for rendering, animation, drafting, engineering, analysis, and manufacturing. For designers who are exploring new shapes using generative algorithms, Grasshopper® is a graphical algorithm editor tightly integrated with Rhino’s 3-D modeling tools. Unlike RhinoScript, Grasshopper requires no knowledge of programming or scripting, but still allows designers to build form generators from the simple to the awe-inspiring.

Your Rhino account provides a single way to use and manage everything McNeel.

You can associate your Rhino licenses (and those of other compatible plugins), participate in our discussion forum, and use other first and third party services using the same account––even if your email addresses or linked accounts change at some point in time.

Rhino Accounts is designed to be secure from the very beginning, and we are continuously improving the security and stability of the system.


Create a New Rhino Account

Creating a Rhino account is easy and free.

Warning If you already created a Rhino account before, you should use it instead of creating a new account. Your new account will not have any services or licenses associated with it. See recover your account if you are having trouble logging in to your existing account.

To create a Rhino account:

  1. Go to the Create an Account page.
  2. If you’d like to link an account, click on the appropriate button. Otherwise click on No Thanks.
  3. Fill out required information, if any.
  4. Click Create a New Account.
Using a linked account, such as Google or Facebook, means that you won’t have to use a password or setup any account information. If you choose to use a password, you will need to verify your email address by clicking on a link in an email we will send you after creating your account.

Recover an Existing Rhino Account

If you are unable to login to your Rhino account, it is possible for us to send you an email containing tailored information on how to recover your account. If you login using a linked account, the email will contain information on which account you should use to login. If you login using a password, you will have the opportunity to reset your password by clicking on a link in the email.

To have Rhino Accounts send you a recovery email:

  1. Go to the Recover Your Account page.
  2. Type in any email address associated with your Rhino account in the Email field.
  3. Click Continue or press the return ⏎ key.
Tip If you type your password incorrectly repeatedly over a short period of time, you may see the message 'This account is temporarily locked out. Please try again later.' You may have to wait up to 24 hours––even if you reset your password––before you can login again. In addition, if your account has Two-Factor Auth enabled, you will still need to provide the TOTP code to login. If you do not have a device that generates this code anymore, please contact our support team.

Delete your Rhino Account Permanently

Deleting your account permanently removes all data related to your account from Rhino Accounts.

Danger Do not delete your account unless you are absolutely sure you have no licenses or services associated with it that you would like to use in the future. Access to any product or service will be terminated immediately upon account deletion. Never delete your account attempting to fix an issue with a product or service unless you have been specifically told to do so by a McNeel technician.

To permanently delete your Rhino account:

  1. Go to the Delete Account page.
  2. Read any warning messages carefully.
  3. If you are unsure whether you want to delete your account, you probably should not. Contact our support team for help.
  4. Click Delete.

Merge Two Rhino Accounts

You may want to consolidate two different Rhino accounts created at different points in time into one single account to simplify account management. Below is an example of what a typical scenario may look like, and what the outcome should be:

To merge two Rhino accounts into a single Rhino account:

  1. Identify the account you want to keep. This account is the one that has all services and products associated with it. In this example, it would be account A.
  2. Login to the account you don't want to keep. In this case, it would be account B.
  3. Delete account B. This will free up any linked accounts and email addresses associated with it.
  4. Login to account A.
  5. Associate any email addresses and add any linked accounts that were previously associated with account B
If both accounts have some service or product associated with it, you will need to transfer these from account B to account A before you proceed any further. For example, if both accounts have licenses in Cloud Zoo, you will need to remove all licenses in account B and add them to account A.

Login to your Rhino Account

To login to your Rhino account:

  1. Type your email address in the Email field. If the field is not visible, click on Other Login Options.
  2. Click the button or press the return ⏎ key.
  3. If you setup your Rhino account with a linked account:
    • Click on the colored button that appears in the middle of the screen.
  4. Otherwise:
    • Enter your Rhino account's password .
    • Click the button or press the return ⏎ key.
    • If your account has Two-Factor Auth enabled:
      • Enter the TOTP code from your secondary device.
      • Click the button or press the return ⏎ key.
Tip If you type your password incorrectly repeatedly over a short period of time, you may see the message 'This account is temporarily locked out. Please try again later.' You may have to wait up to 24 hours––even if you reset your password––before you can login again.
Tip If you are on your personal device, make sure to check Keep me signed in. This will keep you logged in to your Rhino account even if you close your web browser or restart your device. Never check this option if you are on a public computer.

Manage Emails

To manage emails associated with your account, go to the Emails page. You can add or remove email addresses from this page.

Tip Your Rhino account can be associated with as many email addresses as you own as long as they have not been taken by another Rhino account. If you have accidentally made more than one Rhino account and would like to consolidate them, see merge accounts.

Manage Linked Accounts

To manage linked accounts, such as Facebook and Google accounts associated with your account, go to the Linked Accounts page. You can add or remove linked accounts from this page.

Tip Associating one or more linked accounts to your Rhino Account allows you to simplify the login process by not requiring you to store or remember a password for your Rhino Account. Also note that the Two-Factor Auth feature will be bypassed if logging in with a linked account.

Change your Rhino Account's Password

To change your Rhino account's password:

  1. Go to the Change Password page.
  2. Enter your current password, if any.
  3. Enter your new password.
  4. Confirm your new password.
  5. Click Save.
If you created your Rhino account with a linked account, your Rhino account may not have a password set. In this case you will not be asked to enter your current password.

Two-Factor Auth

Two Factor Authentication, also known as Two Step Authentication, provides an optional layer of security when logging in to your account. You can choose to require two factor authentication every time you login to your Rhino account, or only when you login from a new device.

Warning If you login using a linked account, two factor authentication will be bypassed.

To manage two factor authentication:

  1. Go to the Two-Factor Auth page.
  2. Follow the instructions to enable or disable the system.

Update your Personal Information

You can update personal information associated with your account at any time. To change email addresses and/or linked accounts, see Account Emails and Linked Accounts, respectively. Your personal information is kept safe in Rhino Accounts and is not shared with any third parties unless you give explicit permiission to do so.

Tip Some services that use Rhino Accounts cache your personal information. You may need to logout and login again on such services so they reflect the updated information.

There are two ways to add additional team members, either by sending them an invite, or in large organizations, by linking your team to a domain.

Rhino 3d

View your Teams

You can view which teams you belong to and view your role in each of them at a glance. To view your teams, go to the Teams page.

Tip You can click on any team to view more information, including its members.

Create a Team

Creating a team is easy and free. To do so:

  1. Go to the Teams page.
  2. Click New Team.
  3. Fill out the required fields.
  4. Click Create a New Team.
Tip A lonely team is no fun. You can invite users or link your team to a domain immediately upon team creation.

View Team Members

To view the team members in a particular team:

  1. Go to the Teams page.
  2. Click on the team whose members you wish to see.
  3. Scroll down to view the team members. You can sort columns and use the arrow keys ← → to scroll through the list.

Leave a Team

Warning Leaving a team will prevent you from using any of the team’s resources, such as any licenses associated with it.

To leave a team you belong to:

  1. Go to the Teams page.
  2. Click on the team you wish to leave.
  3. Click on the Action button at the bottom of the page.
  4. Click Leave Team.

Administrative Tasks for Teams

If you are an Owner or an Admin of a team, you can perform all the administrative tasks listed below.


Invite Team Members

By default, a newly created team only includes one member: its owner. To have additional users join your team, you must send them an invite via email as explained below. The email addresses need not be associated with an existing Rhino account––the invitees will have the option to create a Rhino account if they do not already have one.

To invite team members:

  1. Go to the Teams page.
  2. Click on the desired team.
  3. Click on the Action button at the bottom of the page.
  4. Click Invite Members.
  5. Choose the Language the invites will be sent in.
  6. Type or paste the email addresses of the invitees.
  7. Review the email addresses the invites will be sent to.
  8. Click Send.
Using a linked account, such as Google or Facebook, means that you won’t have to use a password or setup any account information. If you choose to use a password, you will need to verify your email address by clicking on a link in an email we will send you after creating your account.

Remove Team Members

Warning If the team is linked to a domain and the user’s email addresses belongs to said domain, the user will be given the option to be added again the next time they login. You will need to remove the user from your domain in order to effectively remove him or her from the team.

To remove team members from a team:

  1. Go to the Teams page.
  2. Click on the desired team.
  3. Click on the user to remove.
  4. Click Remove from Team.

Modify a Team Member's Role

To modify a team member's role:

  1. Go to the Teams page.
  2. Click on the desired team.
  3. Click on the user whose role is to be modified.
  4. Select the appropriate role for the user.
  5. Click Save.

Link Team to a Domain

Linking a Rhino Accounts team to a domain is useful in large or complex organizations.

What happens when a Rhino Accounts team is linked to a domain?
  1. Any existing users who have any email address associated with the domain will be given an ultimatum the next time they login. they can either:
    • Join the team, drop any email addresses not related to the domain, and adopt the team’s login method.
    • Relinquish any email addresses associated with the domain and decline joining the team.
  2. Any new users who try to login using an email address associated with the domain will have a Rhino account transparently created for them the first time they successfully login using the team's login method. They will also be added to the team without the need for an invite.
  3. If new users try to login or create an account using a different login method, they will be guided to login using the team's login method.
  4. New or existing accounts that have an email address associated with the domain may not add other email addresses or linked accounts, and their linked account must match the team’s login policy.
It is still possible for team administrators to invite users manually even in a domain-linked team. This allows for special users that are not associated with the domain to become team members.
Why link a team to a domain?
  1. Users who have email addresses associated with the domain will be added to the team without the need to create an account and explicitly accept an invitation.
  2. IT administrators can use their own user management tools such as onelogin, Azure Active Directory, Google for Work etc… to manage team members. For example, an administrator can create an Active Directory group that contains the only members who are allowed to login to Rhino Accounts. Similarly, removing a user from that group effectively restricts that user from using their Rhino account.
How do you link a team to a domain?
  1. Go to the Teams page.
  2. Click on the desired team.
  3. Click on the Action button at the bottom of the page.
  4. Click on Link Domain to Team.
  5. Check the checkbox.
  6. Type a domain name that you own. Make sure it is the root domain (i.e. rhino3d.com and not www.rhino3d.com) unless your email server purposefully uses a subdomain.
  7. Place the specified file at the specified location in your domain’s HTTP server. Make sure it can be publically accessed.
  8. Choose a login method. For the following providers, you will need to specify additional configuration settings specific to your domain:
    • Setup Azure Active Directory.
    • Setup onelogin.
    • Setup Okta.
    • Setup Custom Provider.
  9. Click Save.

Setup Azure Active Directory

  12. Ensure that there is an entry for https://accounts.rhino3d.com for both CORS and Redirect. If there isn't one, add an origin by clicking Add Origin.

Setup Custom Provider
  1. The custom provider you choose to use must meet the following criteria:
    • It must be an OpenID Connect provider.
    • It must implement OpenID Connect's Discovery Endpoint at the path: /.well-known/openid-configuration.
    • The Discovery Endpoint must include a valid jwks_uri.
    • The Discovery Endpoint must have CORS support so that it can be accessed from https://accounts.rhino3d.com via JavaScript.
    • It must support the implicit grant type.
    • It must support the id_token response type.
  2. Register an OpenID Connect client with your provider, being sure to include the Redirect URI shown in Rhino Accounts.
  3. Back in Rhino Accounts, paste the client id of the client your just created into the Client/App ID field.
  4. Finally, enter the base url of your provider into the Endpoint field. For example, if the Discovery Endpoint is at https://mydomain.com/oidc/.well-known/openid-configuration, you would enter mydomain.com/oidc.
You must be familiar with the OpenID Connect protocol if you choose to go this route. We cannot provide detailed support if you choose to use a custom provider. You are responsible for the compliance and upkeep of your custom provider's infrastructure.

Permissions

Rhino accounts keeps all your information confidential by default. In order for any service or product (called app in this section) to access your account information, you must explicitly consent to do so. You can view which apps you have given permission to access some or all of your account information, and revoke these permissions at any time.


View Apps That Have Access to your Account

To view all the apps that have access to your account:

  1. Go to the Permissions page.
  2. Click on the service or product of interest

Toolbars

Menus

Note: The menu versions turn the object snaps on for one pick only. For persistent object snaps, use the Osnap control.

Rhino 3d

Tools

Object Snap

The object snaps constrain the marker to an exact location on an object such as the end of a line or the center of a circle.

When Rhino asks you to choose a point, you can constrain the marker to specific parts of existing objects by turning on object snap modes. When an object snap is active, moving the cursor near a specified point on an object causes the marker to jump to that point.

Object snaps can persist from pick to pick, or can be activated for one pick only. Multiple persistent object snaps can be set in the Osnap control. All object snaps behave similarly, but snap to different parts of existing geometry.

For example, the End object snap finds the endpoint of a curve. When activated, the end object snap constrains the marker to the endpoint of the curve closest the cursor.

Multiple object snaps

More than one object snap can be active at the same time. As the cursor passes over an object, the appropriate object snap displays.

Persistent object snaps

Use persistent objects snaps to maintain an object snap through choosing several points without having to reactivate the object snap. Only Cen, End, Int, Knot, Mid, Near, Perp, Point, Quad, Tan, and Vertex object snaps can persist.

You can set the Snap radius for object snaps. This means how close you have to move the cursor to the point before the marker jumps to the point.

To display the Osnap control

1. On the status bar, click Osnap.
2. Select or clear the desired object snap check boxes.

To turn off all persistent object snaps

Click Disable.

Note: Disabling the object snaps suspends their use temporarily. When the Disable check box is cleared, all previously set object snaps turn back on.

To clear check boxes

Right-click to toggle the checked/cleared state of all but the selected check box.

To clear all persistent object snaps

1. Right-clickDisable.
2. Press Alt to temporarily suspend object snaps.

Note: If object snaps are disabled, press Alt to toggle them on temporarily.

One-shot object snaps

One-shot object snaps only work when Rhino is requesting a point, are turned on for one pick only, and override all persistent object snaps for that pick.

To set a one-shot object snap

Press Shift and click an object snap check box.

For example, if End, Near, and Point persistent object snaps are set in the Osnap control, and you set the Mid object snap for one pick, End, Near, and Point will not work for that pick. After the pick, the persistent object snaps will reactivate.

Object snaps when dragging

When object snaps are on, click and hold near object snap locations to use them for the start or end locations of the drag.

To suspend object snaps for the drag, press and hold Alt.

Drag line from midpoint to circle center.

Project object snaps

The Project button on the Osnap control projects any object snap to the current construction plane. For example, in the illustration, the curve projects to the construction plane from snapped locations on an object.
