Extremely helpful! I do jewelry design and was forced to use a different SubD tool since TSplines was discontinued. I'm so stoked to see the McNeel guys turning this into a reality.
Hi Miss, thanks for the comments. The ToSubD command is a newer update. If you are using an older version of rhino 6, the command is SubDfromMesh. You can update the release version to update to this new commands. Cheers.
can anyone give a basic breakdown of why certain modeling types are used? Rhino is used for industrial surface design intended to be manufactured? Subdivision modeling is for modeling more complex organic forms (as opposed to automotive type surfaces, bike frames, overall simpler surfaces) ? Is a software like Z Brush a subdivision modeler? Whats the difference in polygonal modeling? Solid modeling? My apologies in advance for the broad questions.
Hi, Rhino is primarily a NURBS modeller. Its subdivision modeling is different from that of programs such as 3DS Max in the sense that the Subdivision converts to NURBS instead of polygons. NURBS formats are required for manufacturing. The standard exchange format is STEP or IGES(older format). Polygons are not accurate enough for manufacturing. Zbrush is primarily a mesh modeller. Just my understanding.
Oh... that depends. If you have Rhino 7, you can use the Quadremesh command to convert the STL to sub-D. and then convert the Sub-D to NURBS using the ToNURBS command. Next, export the NURBS model as STEP or Parasolid. Here is the demo video >> th-cam.com/video/4CzBMcP4rcA/w-d-xo.html
@@simpernchong thank sir so much i want to convert the STL to sub-D ( my part are animal toys), please help me chose Geomatrix X or Rhino , better for my work
@@simpernchong if you ca, please share for me doccument about to convert the STL to sub-D. and then convert the Sub-D to NURBS using the ToNURBS command
A newer video on essential Sub-D command and workflow for Rhino 7 is here : th-cam.com/video/gAOTEfaKg80/w-d-xo.html

Hey, every time I type "tosubd" my rhino 6 says "Unknown Command", why it's occurring that? Nice video though!
You might be using an older version of rhino 6. May need to do an update :)
Very helpful! There is a question,at 6:20 mirror step, I just can't change the other side when original part changed
Got to click Record History ( 5:48 ) before doing the Symmetry. 感谢您的观看 。。

@@mryasuo2534 ehmmm... i have no experience with geomatrix /geomagic ... so I cannot make a comparison. Sorry.
@@simpernchong no no, no experience, i just know name software better for convert the STL to sub-D

Thanks for the comments.
How do i download subd for rhino 6?
please answerr.. :(((
The commands are already in there. No need for any downloads.
@@simpernchong Thank youu so muchh:))
@@serifesolmaz32 You are welcome :)
@@simpernchong may I ask one more thing?
Is there any other plugin for Rhino 6 that looks like the T-spline plugin?
Where is the Tosubd tool ?
Are you using Rhino 6?
in Rhino 6 there is no sub-d toolbar, all of them are hidden, the only way to use them is knowing the complete name and then making your own toolbar.
@@DiegoKrausebrc Please can you give the complete names of the sub-d commands and how to create a toolbar with them. THANKS
From where I can get that green, blue and red vectors?
Gumball command or icon at the lower right of the interface.
