Namespace: [Grasshopper.Kernel.Types](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/namespace/grasshopper.kernel.types.md) · Assembly: [Grasshopper](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/assembly/grasshopper.md)

```cs
public class GH_DetailView : GH_GeometricGoo<DetailView>, IGH_GeometricGoo, IGH_PreviewData
```

Represents a Rhino model detail view. Wraps the functionality of the [DetailView](https://mcneel-apidocs-rhinocommon-7f6eb10c6967.herokuapp.com/api/rhinocommon/type/rhino.geometry.detailview/) type.

## Constructors

- [GH_DetailView](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/type/grasshopper.kernel.types.gh-detailview/ctor.md): (4 overloads) Default constructor, creates an invalid detail view.

## Properties

- [BoundingBox](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/type/grasshopper.kernel.types.gh-detailview/boundingbox.md)
- [ClippingBox](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/type/grasshopper.kernel.types.gh-detailview/clippingbox.md)
- [IsGeometryLoaded](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/type/grasshopper.kernel.types.gh-detailview/isgeometryloaded.md): Gets the load state of this detail view object. The detail view is considered to be loaded when the local detail view instance is not null.
- [IsValid](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/type/grasshopper.kernel.types.gh-detailview/isvalid.md): Gets the validity of this detail view. If the detail view is referenced but cannot be loaded, the detail view is not valid.
- [IsValidWhyNot](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/type/grasshopper.kernel.types.gh-detailview/isvalidwhynot.md): Gets a string describing the state of "invalidness". If the instance is valid, then this property should return Nothing or String.Empty.
- [ReferenceID](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/type/grasshopper.kernel.types.gh-detailview/referenceid.md)
- [TypeDescription](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/type/grasshopper.kernel.types.gh-detailview/typedescription.md)
- [TypeName](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/type/grasshopper.kernel.types.gh-detailview/typename.md)
- [Value](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/type/grasshopper.kernel.types.gh-detailview/value.md)
- [Viewport](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/type/grasshopper.kernel.types.gh-detailview/viewport.md)

## Methods

- [CastTo<T>](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/type/grasshopper.kernel.types.gh-detailview/castto.md)
- [ClearCaches](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/type/grasshopper.kernel.types.gh-detailview/clearcaches.md): Clears all volatile caches for this instance. The boundingbox is cleared, and if the detail view is referenced, the local instance of the detail view is erased.
- [DrawViewportMeshes](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/type/grasshopper.kernel.types.gh-detailview/drawviewportmeshes.md)
- [DrawViewportWires](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/type/grasshopper.kernel.types.gh-detailview/drawviewportwires.md)
- [Duplicate](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/type/grasshopper.kernel.types.gh-detailview/duplicate.md)
- [DuplicateDetailView](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/type/grasshopper.kernel.types.gh-detailview/duplicatedetailview.md): Create a duplicate of this hatch.
- [DuplicateGeometry](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/type/grasshopper.kernel.types.gh-detailview/duplicategeometry.md): Create a duplicate of this hatch.
- [GetBoundingBox](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/type/grasshopper.kernel.types.gh-detailview/getboundingbox.md)
- [LoadGeometry](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/type/grasshopper.kernel.types.gh-detailview/loadgeometry.md): (2 overloads) If the geometry is referenced and not yet loaded, attempts to load the geometry.
- [Morph](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/type/grasshopper.kernel.types.gh-detailview/morph.md)
- [Read](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/type/grasshopper.kernel.types.gh-detailview/read.md)
- [ScriptVariable](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/type/grasshopper.kernel.types.gh-detailview/scriptvariable.md)
- [ToString](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/type/grasshopper.kernel.types.gh-detailview/tostring.md): Format the detail view using default grasshopper formatting logic.
- [Transform](https://developer.rhino3d.com/api/gh1/type/grasshopper.kernel.types.gh-detailview/transform.md)
