Hi, I'm loading tools and frames from my library using Load Tool and Load Frame. They show up correctly as value lists in Grasshopper, but I can't get their geometry to appear in the Rhino viewport. The robot mesh from Load Robot System shows up right away, but the tool and frame meshes don't. Thanks! |

Load ToolandLoad Frameoutput Robots data objects, and those parameters do not preview geometry directly.Deconstruct Tooland preview theMeshoutput. Connect theTCPoutput to a native GrasshopperPlaneparameter if you also want to see the TCP axes.Planeparameter. The Robots frame casts to its stored plane, which Grasshopper can preview. A frame itself contains no mesh.If
Deconstruct Toolreturns an empty mesh, that tool library entry does not have a preview mesh assigned.
