Gets or sets the object attributes.

Gets the document that owns this object.

Gets the underlying geometry for this object.

All rhino objects are composed of geometry and attributes.

Gets or sets the activation state of object default editing grips.

true if grips are turned on and at least one is selected.

Number of groups object belongs to.

True if the object has a dynamic transformation

Every object has a Guid (globally unique identifier, also known as UUID, or universally unique identifier). The default value is Guid.Empty.

When an object is added to a model, the value is checked. If the value is Guid.Empty, a new Guid is created. If the value is not null but it is already used by another object in the model, a new Guid is created. If the value is not Guid.Empty and it is not used by another object in the model, then that value persists. When an object is updated, by a move for example, the value of ObjectId persists.

This value is the same as the one returned by this.Attributes.ObjectId.

Some objects cannot be deleted, like grips on lights and annotation objects.

true if the object is deleted. Deleted objects are kept by the document for undo purposes. Call RhinoDoc.UndeleteObject to undelete an object.

An object must be in one of three modes: normal, locked or hidden. If an object is in normal mode, then the object's layer controls visibility and selectability. If an object is locked, then the object's layer controls visibility by the object cannot be selected. If the object is hidden, it is not visible and it cannot be selected.

true if the object is used as part of an instance definition.

An object must be in one of three modes: normal, locked or hidden. If an object is in normal mode, then the object's layer controls visibility and selectability. If an object is locked, then the object's layer controls visibility by the object cannot be selected. If the object is hidden, it is not visible and it cannot be selected.

If an object is locked, then the object's layer controls visibility by the object cannot be selected. If the object is hidden, it is not visible and it cannot be selected.

Gets a value indicating if an object is a reference object. An object from a work session reference model is a reference object and cannot be modified. An object is a reference object if, and only if, it is on a reference layer.

Tests an object to see if its data members are correctly initialized.

Rhino objects have optional text names. More than one object in a model can have the same name and some objects may have no name.

Gets the runtime serial number that will be assigned to the next Rhino Object that is created.

Gets the Rhino-based object type.

Gets the render material associated with this object or null if there is none. This does not pay attention to the material source and will not check parent objects or layers for a RenderMaterial.

Gets the objects runtime serial number.

Gets the object visibility.

Moves changes made to this RhinoObject into the RhinoDoc.

Create meshes used to render and analyze surface and polysrf objects.

Constructs a deep (full) copy of the geometry.

Turns on/off the object's editing grips.

Used to turn analysis modes on and off.

Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.

Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection.

Gets a list of currently enabled analysis modes for this object.

While an object is being dynamically tranformed (dragged, rotated, ...), the current transformation can be retrieved and used for creating dynamic display.

Returns grips for this object If grips are enabled. If grips are not enabled, returns null.

Allocates an array of group indices of length GroupCount. If GroupCount is 0, then this method returns null.

Serves as the default hash function.

Gets a list of all highlighted subobjects.

Gets material that this object uses based on it's attributes and the document that the object is associated with. In the rare case that a document is not associated with this object, null will be returned.

Get existing meshes used to render and analyze surface and polysrf objects.

Gets the RenderMaterial that this object uses based on it's attributes and the document that the object is associated with. If there is no RenderMaterial associated with this object then null is returned. If null is returned you should call GetMaterial to get the material used to render this object.

Gets the render meshes of some objects.

Meshing parameters that this object uses for generating render meshes. If the object's attributes do not have custom meshing parameters, then the document's meshing parameters are used.

Build custom render mesh(es) for this object.

Get a list of all selected sub-objects.

Gets an array of sub-objects.

Get a list of the texture mapping channel Id's associated with object.

Get objects texture mapping

Gets the Type of the current instance.

Modifies the highlighting of the object.

Highlights a subobject.

Reports if any visual analysis mode is currently active for an object.

Reports if a visual analysis mode is currently active for an object.

Determine if this object is active in a particular viewport.

Check highlight state.

Returns true if the object is capable of having a mesh of the specified type

Reports if an object can be selected.

Reports if an object can be selected.

Check selection state.

Determines if a subobject is highlighted.

Reports if a subobject can be selected.

Check sub-object selection state.

Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.

Computes an estimate of the number of bytes that this object is using in memory. Note that this is a runtime memory estimate and does not directly compare to the amount of space take up by the object when saved to a file.

RhinoObjects can have several different types of meshes and different numbers of meshes. A b-rep can have a render and an analysis mesh on each face. A mesh object has a single render mesh and no analysis mesh. Curve, point, and annotation objects have no meshes.

Mesh Rhino Objects

This call informs an object it is about to be added to the list of active objects in the document.

This call informs an object it is about to be deleted. Some objects, like clipping planes, need to do a little extra cleanup before they are deleted.

Called when this a new instance of this object is created and copied from an existing object

Called to determine if this object or some sub-portion of this object should be picked given a pick context.

Called when this object has been picked

Called when a space morph has been applied to the geometry. Currently this only works for CustomMeshObject instances
